An accomplished Midlands entrepreneur who achieved 11th place on the Inner City 100 Register of fastest growing companies will be giving Birmingham business bosses the benefit of his experience when he visits Solihull on Friday February 19th.

Mark Harris, Managing Director of leading Shropshire based business improvement consultancy, The Business Company, will address members of the Birmingham Chapter of Business Network International (BNI) UK at Hogarth's Hotel. 

With 650 Chapters in the UK alone, BNI is the world's largest international business networking group. The Phoenix Chapter in Birmingham is among the top ten Chapters in the UK.

Speaking about the effects of the current financial climate on Birmingham businesses Mark Harris said today: "The DTI has forecast that more than 10,000 businesses will fail during 2010, and without doubt the climb out of the recession pit will be an uphill struggle for many survivors. I believe, however, that with pragmatic planning, sound financial management and engagement with their people, local businesses here in the Midlands will be well-equipped to tackle the climb and able to grow out of the recession to become even stronger."
