Liveblog: CBI Entrepreneurs' Summit
Yesterday I liveblogged the CBI Entrepreneurs' Summit, held in London. The event featured Stelios of Easyjet fame, Mark Dixon of Regus, and Brent Hoberman of Lastminute.com.

Here's the complete blog of the day's events...

Welcome from CBI
The vice-president of the CBI, Helen Alexander, is welcoming delegates. She mentions what the CBI claims it's doing to help entrepreneurs with the recession - claiming credit for the Regional Venture Funds, simplified legislation and business support etc!
10:07
Reasons for Hope
Ms Alexander continues with some reasons for hope... opportunities for startups (Mike Bloomberg famously launched his company after redundancy), new technologies etc. Recent upturn in stock market may mean people are ready to invest again. But the next year will be tough. Access to credit is still difficult. CBI will do what it can, she promises!
