SimonSimon Parslow
Simon Parslow is a visionary entrepreneur. Not content with the status quo of the
retail sector he has used influences from a variety of business models and created
an e-tail mash up which looks set to raise a few eyebrows in 2009. He wishes to educate fundraisers of all shapes and sizes that they too can benefit from a shift in consumer buying habits. The ever changing cycle of money in circulation means that to survive fundraisers must be aware of the opportunities that exist and be willing to embrace new technology and what it can bring. www.eSay-uk.com

 

YOUR HOST
PaulPaul Sage – Click4Causes
“I want to welcome fundraisers of all sizes of organisation to our half day event at the Open University. I believe that the information will be of real value in these challenging times for charities, with income dropping because of a low return on capital investments and lower donations”
