Mr Günter

UK 's dynamism and wealth creation critically depends
on enterprise. Positioning Britain as a nation of
opportunity means we must inspire a whole new generation
about the growing importance of enterprise in a changing world. This means
mobilising
education, business, development and regeneration agencies, workforce development
and innovation programmes, and leisure, culture and youth activities towards
a shared purpose. It means practically making ideas happen and ensuring support
for UK 's aspiring entrepreneurs.
During the UK 's presidency of the European Union, this year's Enterprise
Insight's summit will look at progress towards creating enterprising people
and places
and at the reinvigorated commitment to enterprise in the UK and increasingly
across Europe .
Launching this year's UK wide Enterprise Week 2005 and debating a ‘ National'
Strategy for Enterprise , the event will offer the opportunity to hear from
leading international figures, as well as key individuals from across government,
the
public and private sectors. Enterprising Britain is a must attend for anyone
engaged in fostering the growth of enterprising individuals and places.
