Future Trends, Economy, Markets, Keynote Speaker
There are many opportunities for growth in Northern Ireland,
and there will be even more as the economy in the Republic of Ireland
recovers (as it will). Much depends on investor confidence, whether of
the CEO of a medium sized company with healthy balance sheets, who has
been afraid to burn cash that might be needed in a new downturn, or the
leader of a new start-up who is wondering about the wisdom of seeking a
loan which is tied to the equity in the family home. Need a world-class keynote speaker for your event? Phone or e-mail Patrick Dixon now.

Future Travel Keynote Speaker:Auto, Rail, Aviation
Winston Churchill once said: "If you want to understand the future, study the past". One thing is certain: transport systems built over the last 2000 years will still leave traces on the landscape or shape of cities for the next 2000 years. Take Roman Roads in Britain, which still define Britain today. Earthworks from ancient hill forts are still visible after 3000 years. And some earthworks from building of canals, railways or roads over the last 300 years will still be visible in 30,000 years. Here is the full text of a really interesting book written by my Uncle, Richard Vibart Dixon: "Muddling Through - The History of Transport in Britain". It explains the past, and makes one think about the future: how will people travel and why? What traces will today's transport systems leave for future generations.
