Chief Executive Paul McEldon has been appointed NEN National Chairman

Paul McEldon, chief executive of the North East Business and Innovation Centre (BIC) a regional agency and business complex, has been appointed chairman of the National Enterprise Network (NEN) at its annual conference in Manchester this week 19th September 2012.

A national membership body for organisations committed to the support and development of enterprise, NEN members are drawn from enterprise support organisations across England, and last year collectively supported over 69,000 pre-starts and 76,000 established businesses.   

Paul said:   “The BIC is dedicated to building successful businesses in the North East region, and as part of this strategy we have been fortunate enough to work with a wide variety of likeminded organisations both locally and nationally.  The NEN has a superb track record, helping to ensure businesses and individuals have access to information by effectively positioning its members as the focus for enterprise activity and support.

“It was a real honour to be invited to be national chair of NEN, and I am really looking forward to taking up the role.”
