I’m sad to say I missed being a<br />
Generation Y entrepreneur by a<br />
slither, and sadly fall into the X<br />
category. As my business partner<br />
(and husband) is just about in<br />
Gen Y, I would like to think our business is a<br />
good example of how the creativity and vision<br />
of two 20 somethings back in the day, has<br />
resulted in a thriving and established business.<br />
I’m really keen now to look back and see how<br />
the new batch of 20 somethings are doing;<br />
they’re the ones to watch, and in this new<br />
digital era they’ll be doing business in very different ways<br />
from how we more established folks are.<br />
In my new role as a Suffolk Business Ambassador, I have<br />
pledged to highlight the skills and expertise in the county.<br />
We are going to start by launching our 30 Under 30<br />
campaign. We are looking for budding entrepreneurs<br />
under the age of 30 whose stories we can track and<br />
celebrate with them along their journey. Turn to page<br />
10 to see how you can join in, and nominate yourself or<br />
someone you know. For more information on The Suffolk<br />
Business Ambassador programme, please see page 26.<br />
For those of you who haven’t had the opportunity to visit<br />
the <strong>IQ</strong> website yet, please do take a moment to do so. Not<br />
only does it offer a wealth of local business news, but also<br />
is the perfect place to post your own news. I would like to<br />
encourage all our business readers to send in their good<br />
news stories and press releases.<br />
