Downturn is an ‘opportunity’

PROFESSOR Dan Breznitz of Georgia Institute of Technology is adamant the recession is not an obstacle but an opportunity to grow Irish companies to drive the economy and become global leaders.

Mr Breznitz was speaking at the announcement of a conference that will focus on issues in the current climate impacting on start-up companies.

How to Grow the Irish Entrepreneur is being run by UCD Business Alumni on March 11 in UCD.
