LONDON, October 31, 2011 /PRNewswire/ --
- Sharing Experiences From Successful Business
Iconnyx has partnered with The Supper Club to launch 'SME Insights', a programme of events, discussion and content, focusing on business issues and sharing expertise and best practice.
The key objective of the partnership is to provide a platform for small businesses to share pain points and receive relevant educational content. The joint forum will comprise of monthly themed leadership content, available to SMEs across the UK, and supported by educational seminars and networking events in London. SME Insights will also issue a bi-annual report, as a benchmark and bellwether for the SME market.
The Supper Club is a group of the country's most innovative, fast-growth entrepreneurs; the average top-line growth rate last year of their members was 28% versus the UK national GDP of 1.4%. The club's 8-year history of sharing knowledge and best practice enables the programme to collate experiences from some of the UK's most innovative and successful business leaders. Iconnyx has an extensive SME customer base and a history of providing technology solutions to assist small business growth and agility.
The programme is based on topical events but also issues as reported by businesses, ensuring they have the best resources to make informed decisions, particularly throughout uncertain economic times.
"As a Club, we are fortunate enough to have hosted over 800 round-table dinners with some of Britain's most successful entrepreneurs" said Duncan Cheatle, founder of The Supper Club. "We're excited to work with Iconnyx in sharing some of the business insights and experiences that naturally come to light."
"It can be a lonely business running a small enterprise at the best of times, but the economic conditions add another layer of pressure and uncertainty," said Tim Walker, MD at Iconnyx. "We have built this community as a go-to for business leaders needing answers to questions. We hope SME Insights will provide the advice and contacts that individual businesses need to give them the confidence to grow and thrive."
The campaign will kick off with a monthly survey and discussion forum via the Iconnyx blog and The Supper Club's LinkedIn Prelude Network Group. Joint events will be held twice a year and will be focused on the hottest topics as reported by SMEs.
