Comments: Delivering Entrepreneurial Enterprise on Merseyside?

I've got some ideas,some were sketeched out in that LEP2.0 blog. I should be more diligent and write some more about this.

I've been thinking for a while that I should initiate 'Growth Camp Liverpool' or something along those lines to see if we can crowd-source some ideas about accelerating growth (or at least more innovation).

There are some more meta-level questions about what do we want from growth, what type of economy are we trying to create and so on. I've just been talking this afternoon about the carrying capacity of an economy, and its something we have to bear in mind - I do think its not about starting more enterprises per se - that was New Labour's strategy to close the enterprise gap and it largely failed (see http://www.scribd.com/doc/60421640/New-Labour-the-Enterprise-Gap-and-the-Red-Queen-James-Derbyshire-Garry-Haywood)

But the debate does need to continue. I'm too knacked to read Ian's paper now but I'll fit it in over the weekedn. Is he Liverpool based do you know?
