Business Training

Free business training will be open to businesses in 2011, delivered by Retail Revival, supported by Melton Borough Council

Seminar: Is Your Business a Dinosaur or Chameleon?
Venue: The Samworth Centre

Date: February 2011 - date to be confirmed

Time: 6.00pm-8.00pm

This seminar assesses rapid changes to the way people use town centres. It predicts the future for our High Streets and draws upon successful case studies to illustrate how others are working together to stay ahead of the game. If your business fails to adapt to its changing environment then, like a dinosaur, it will shuffle off this mortal coil. If, like a chameleon, it has the ability to adapt then it may survive in the face of adversity.
