| Would You Like To Become More Involved With The Society? |
| The Council periodically undertakes projects or initiatives aimed at
enhancing the service the Society provides to its members. In some of
these areas, an additional pair of hands- especially if linked to e.g.
IT, writing or marketing skills - can be invaluable. |
| If you'd like to play a more active role in supporting the Council
and the Society on an occasional or ongoing basis, do let us know by
registering your interest with the SBE secretariat at admin@sbe.co.uk
(and don't forget to flag any skills, experience or interests that you
think may be helpful). We'll then contact you as and when suitable
projects come up, to offer you the opportunity of becoming involved. |

| Institute Of Economic Affairs - The State Of The Economy Conference |
| As the crisis facing the Eurozone deepens and advances, businesses,
governments and observers have much to consider. The IEA's 29th The
State of the Economy conference will provide a forum for both
presentations and debate, with forecasts and analysis from a wide range
of speakers (including some of our own SBE members). The event will be
held on 23 February 2012 at the Institute of Directors. SBE members
quoting "SBE12" will benefit from a 10% discount on the registration
fee. |
