Microsoft's 4th European Entrepreneurship Day, Brussels

11 June 2008

As one of the first Microsoft Accelerator Partners in the UK, Corebridge has been active at the fourth Entrepreneurship Day hosted by the Microsoft Corporation in Europe.

The objective of the event is to help boost European competitiveness by increasing skill-sharing, job creation and wealth creation amongst entrepreneurs, young companies and investors via Microsoft’s vision of a European Innovation Ecosystem.

As traditional industries have become obsolescent or shifted their centres of operation to markets elsewhere, technological innovation has become a major growth strategy for European firms. Corebridge’s leading edge technology is at the forefront of such innovation.

Simon Taylor, Corebridge’s Chief Information Officer, who has attended the event commented, “Microsoft programs and initiatives are helping to build powerful partnerships that will incubate new products and fund solutions across Europe. As one of Microsoft’s first Accelerator Partners in the UK, Corebridge is pleased to contribute its expertise and experience to Microsoft’s program to help Europe advance as a major area of innovation.”
