Peter Bailey, 24, Management Sciences graduate, founder of FailForward and the South Africa Challenge will be one attendee at the event.
Peter is keen to hear what the government attitudes are towards failing businesses and changing the funding structure for startups. Speaking to NACUE, he explains: “I want to find out answers to questions like: How can the government change attitudes towards failure in the UK’s business scene? And how do you change the current funding structure for startup loans? If you keep giving out loans and not helping existing startups grow it causes more businesses to fail.”
Monday’s Conservative party conference will be the second of three party conferences we’re delivering this autumn.
The unique-style of panel debates will cover student entrepreneurship, enterprise education and more. The panellists will be addressing the issues that young people feel affect them the most.
Panellists will include:
Johnny Luk, NACUE CEO
Stephen Dury, Santander SME Markets and Business Development
Nick Boles, Conservative MP
Nadhim Zahawi, Conservative MP
Sherry Coutu, Entrepreneur
The conservative party panellists will be chaired by Andrew Clark, Deputy Business Editor at The Times.
The question time will be the finale to Enterprise Nation's eFest where 200 young entrepreneurs will turn the library into a living and breathing entrepreneurial incubator and pitch platform.
