Entrepreneurship is all about taking risks and trying something new!

For our first Striding Out event in Liverpool, we have asked as local young entrepreneur to tell us his story about riding the highs and lows of taking business risks. Our guest speaker is Mark Bowness, creator and founder behind the creative consultancy www.peoplepassionplanet.com. Mark is a serial innovator, and pulls together teams and partners in order to execute his ideas.

In 2006 Mark created a project called Tribewanted which brought people together online in order to develop an eco-island in Fiji. Tribewanted became a 5 part prime time BBC2 programme called ‘Paradise or Bust’.

It was due to Tribewanted that Mark was awarded a Channel 4 4Talent Award, which Channel 4 labeling him a ‘future creative hero’. Tribewanted recently beat MySpace to win ‘Best Social Network’ in the Broadcast Digital Media Awards.

Mark has now gone on to launch www.thenerve.tv the World’s first crowd sourced TV production company which has resulted in him developing his ideas with TV production companies and TV Channels across the U.K.

Mark was born on the Wirral and now lives in Liverpool City Centre, despite traveling across the UK he loves his home city. In his spare time Mark can be found at his local gym, local gig venues and enjoying the sites and sounds of Liverpool.

The event is being held in the upstairs bar, at Baa Baa, 43 - 45 Fleet Street, Liverpool. L1 4AN.
