And now here’s a conference for students on the same date as the one for educators in Birmingham.

If you can get to Dundee then the Scottish Institute for Enterprise is holding a one-day event that “is a unique opportunity to hear some of the most successful and inspiring entrepreneurs of our time speak about their success, what inspires them, and share some invaluable advice.

The keynote speaker is James Caan from Dragon’s Den and there’s a quite a list of other inspiring entrepreneurs as well.

If you’re a Scottish Student it’s a mere £6 or £15 for other students.

Date: 10am - 4.30 pm, Wednesday 12th March 2008
