In between working with Atlas, coming up with ideas for outside projects, working with Universities and colleges to get students interested in business, and attempting to have some life outside of work, I also sit on the National IT Committee for the Federation of Small Businesses. The committee doesn’t get its hands dirty actually fixing servers and maintaining networks, but what it does undertake is just as important. It ensures that the FSB leverages the latest technology in a cost efficient manner throughout the huge organisation of staff and volunteers that are actively involved every day. It’s not an easy task and the committee works extraordinarily hard to make this happen.
Pete Scargill, the IT Committee Chairman, has been kind enough to recognise my winning the Young Entrepreneur of the Year award on the FSB IT homepage for the FSB. Many thanks Pete, and let’s hope there is plenty more to shout about in 2008 both for Atlas and the FSB!
