11/05/2009 send to a friend
We're over the moon to report that the UK's first ever Home Enterprise Day will be held on Friday, November 20th. The celebration forms part of Global Entrepreneurship Week and we'd love for you to get involved.
Global Entrepreneurship Week
Global Entrepreneurship Week is a week long celebration of enterprise that's been running since 2004, albeit under a different guise in the UK ('Make Your Mark: Enterprise Week').
Over 644,000 people took part in last year's events and this year looks set to be even bigger.
This is the first year to include a day on which to celebrate home business - so let's make it a good one!
Home Enterprise Day
Global Entrepreneurship Week runs from November 16th - 22nd and our day will be on the Friday, November 20th.
Enterprise Nation is leading the celebrations and recognising the millions of people in the UK who are starting and growing a business from home.
The highlight of the day will be the Enterprise Nation annual conference. At the event, you'll hear from inspirational speakers, meet other home business owners and be the first to congratulate winners of the 2009 Home Business Awards, announced on the day.
How you can get involved
More details about the conference are on their way - and Enterprise Nation members will hear first, so don't forget to register. The whole process is free and simple - and you can get started on the link below.

Comment: Fantastic! Can't wait for the 20th November and at last someone has taken the initiative to do something positive and energising regarding home working rather than focusing on the negatives which the media seem to be doing of late. I think many home working has had somewhat of a stigma in the past and by using high profile and well organised events with flagship businesses and event leaders at the helm it will put it in a more positive and less shady light.
