“During this global economic downturn, now more than ever, we need fresh thinkers who spot opportunities, apply their talents and overcome obstacles to make their ideas happen hence Hull gets fully behind this important week and engages with our young entrepreneurs.

I believe that if we are to engage young people in the enterprise agenda it is essential that we know what they think and that in order to raise finance for the weeks activities in Hull I am pleased to see that the organisers have developed a high profile campaign to attract support through Force-7."
