DESCRIPTION:Successful entrepreneurs are often dismissed as having had a b
 it of good luck. Entrepreneurs too\, are sometimes tempted to ascribe thei
 r progress to luck or serendipity.  What is the reality of entrepreneurial
  success or indeed failure?  How much can we rely on our own endeavours?  
 How much do we have to wait for external conditions to change and go in ou
 r favour?  Is it about the luck of being in the right place at the right t
 ime?  Markets\, technologies\, social trends\, access to funding\, finding
  the first customer but perhaps not where you were looking\, are all cases
  that challenge the rational model for enterprise development. \n\nThe gue
 st panellists will debate these issues. Attendees will get the chance to a
 sk questions and interact with the speakers during a Q&A session.\n\n*Pane
