Business Networking Strategy

As part of Enterprise Week, four young people have been invited to pitch their social enterprise ideas to a panel including Dragons Den's Peter Jones, Glastonbury's Emily Eavis and The Apprentice Winner Tim Campbell. The winner of a public vote wins £5,000 from Unltd to help their idea become a reality. Please help support the campaign, view the pitches and vote here.

With another series of the Apprentice coming to a close, on BBC2 last night Alan Sugar talked about the importance of ruthlessness in business. Referring to one contestant he said "she's not a nice person; but I don't always employ people I like". Meanwhile, another contestant was described as being fired because he was "too nice". In complete contrast to this approach, original Apprentice winner Tim Campbell talks to Monday9amTV about his outlook on business and the show. For Tim, the adage of 'if you win, I lose' doesn't sit comfortably. Is Alan Sugar right?
