Anyone who leaves a Smart Idea on the Future Focus website (www.telegraphbusinessclub.co.uk/futurefocus) gets a £25 wine voucher from Naked Wines. The are a young company, but they are based on a smart idea, namely that they provide a route to market for smaller, independent vineyards – rather than the more familiar big names. Not surprisingly, it has proven very popular with entrepreneurs!
It was good fun to meet with Dr James Bellini & Richard Farleigh this afternoon to film the videos for this site. While interviewing them I was struck by what a perfect choice they are to take leading roles at the conferences. I was particularly struck by what James was saying about making one’s business ‘future-proof’. He explained that it is really difficult to set a robust business strategy unless you have thought through all the changes that are going to happen in the years ahead. Everything from demographic change and new technology to environmental pressures to social networking needs to be taken into account. Fascinating to listen to – and very thought provoking.

I didnt know that futurologists existed. Thanks for the insight. Do you consult?
James Bellini does indeed consult, as do I in terms of how to use social media. What are you interested in?
