Welcome

The 9th Annual European Resource Bank will be held this September 8-10 in the very centre of European politics in Brussels and hosted by New Direction – The Foundation for European Reform, a free market think tank.

Participants can expect an exciting line up of speakers that will debate the relationship between the European Union/Europe and the Liberty Movement, the most recent EU activities that in many ways lead to greater regulations of markets, restrictions of individual freedoms, and new EU’s structures, which are being built to save the collapsing Eurozone members.

The ‘how to do’ seminars will help to make the most of efficient use of social networking and demonstrate how to create a video. Seminars on best practices in business planning and fundraising will be on the programme too. The popular Think Tank Dragons Den will offer a chance to win € 10,000 for original business projects.
