Ebusinessclub Funding Cut

Many of the attendees of Web 2.0 Surgery have highly praised ebusinessclub courses. The quality of speakers and content has been a consistent comment, only enhanced by the fact that the courses offered are free. It appears that this may be about to change in August as funding from EMDA is withdrawn. If you have benefited from the support of ebusinessclub in the past it would be a kind gesture to sign this petition and join this Facebook group to allow future businesses to benefit.

Web 2.0 Surgery was beginning to emerge as an event for extending knowledge based on topics covered at ebusinessclub courses. While Web 2.0 Surgery events can still offer you access to Web 2.0 Experts, the lack of ebusinessclub courses will affect the development of web and Internet business skills in Nottingham.
