Edin's is a good place to meet, great coffee and free wifi if you go ask for the code. Broadway next best - better for lunch. The Walk can be good - but pricey. Rosy Lee's good for meeting for tea. Jaz Cafe nice to meet with a garden - but…

This is a good question ... I sometimes go to Lee Rosys Tea Room in Hockley and Starbucks or Costa on Wheeler Gate (off Old Market Square) ... I am new to Nottingham so I will definitely check out some of these suggestions.

Where do you go to work remotely in Nottingham?

You're bored with staring at your office wall and fancy a change of scenery...You are based out of town and you have some time to kill in between meetings...but where do you go in Nottingham for wireless internet access, relative peace and quiet and a decent coffee?See More

This is great news for the guys but I suspect bad news for the product. It's a real shame that it has been bought by 'the' global drinks conglomerate. As Hammad says, they have been a good case study for a long time and this looks…

Innocent have always been a good case study for many reasons. The fact that the idea came not from a drinks maker, but from an ad-man is indicative of why they were successful - from day one they took a customers perspective and need and THEN…

Could you be where Innocent Drinks are now?

So Mssrs Reed, Wright and Ballon have just sold a stake in their company, Innocent Drinks, to Coca-Cola for £30million, valuing the company at £300million.That means that each of these founding individuals now has a shareholding valued at £30-60million. Not bad for 10 years work from complete start up.10 years ago at Parsons’ Green Jazz Festival the three set up a stall with a sign reading: “Do you think we should give up our jobs to make these smoothies?” alongside two bins for the empties,…See More

The importance of Entrepreneurship and Business Support

When I last checked around 99% of the circa 4million businesses in the UK were SME’s (less than 250 employees) and over 55% of non-governmental jobs were with SME’s.



I suspect with the economic climate set to worsen before it improves then we will see an increase in the latter statistic if not the former.
