Blah... learning days take place in london where we bring together key speakers for a day of discussion around a key area in the ongoing conversation about mission in a changing culture. We are very excited to be hosting this day in conjunction with Ethos on the MLS ship HMS President which is on the Thames in the centre of London - see details of location on right hand side of page. (It was tempting to call the day Entrepreneur-ship!). This is one not to miss.

The Entrepreneur Imperative with Bill Bolton

Bill leads the field on thinking about entrepreneurial talent. He has been closely involved in the 'Cambridge Phenomenon' - he set up the St. John's Innovation Centre which now has an international reputation for generating new businesses and nurturing entrepreneurial talent; it helped to launch about 500 businesses - 2 businesses a week for 5 years.  He was a UNESCO professor of Innovation and Technology Transfer and is a specialist in Business Incubators.  He has written three books, and has developed an entrepreneur evaluation tool that identifies people’s entrepreneur potential and also that of entrepreneur enablers. While his background is in business, he sees entrepreneurs as working with three kinds of capital – economic, social, and spiritual. He has also recently written a grove booklet on entrepreneurs and the church.

A changing world is the entrepreneur’s natural habitat. Business, mission, spirituality, social transformation are all environments where there is huge change. What might happen if we can encourage more entrepreneurial thinking and activity?
