IGNITE your…. Future Champions
Presenter – Laura Smith, Policy Adviser at Confederation of British Industry (CBI) will present the CBI’s report:
“Future Champions: unlocking growth in the UK's medium-sized businesses”.
Medium-sized businesses are the UK's "forgotten army", too long overlooked by government but with the potential to inject between £20bn and £50bn into the economy by 2020, according to the CBI.
The CBI is calling for a broader range of finance to be made available to medium-sized businesses. With banks' lending constrained, these firms can no longer rely solely on bank lending for long-term growth capital to invest in their companies.
The CBI is the UK's leading business organisation, speaking for some 240,000 businesses that together employ around a third of the private sector workforce. With offices across the UK as well as representation in Brussels, Washington, Beijing and Delhi the CBI communicates the British business voice around the world.

Key points include that the company has divisions in consumer/financial publishing and professional publishing, earnings are expected to grow steadily, and the share offering will allow the company to fund further acquisitions to expand in professional publishing in Italy.

The document summarizes a paper about Germany's "hidden champions" and the Mittelstand business model that has contributed to Germany's economic success. It provides Germany's economic history from the Great Depression through the Great Recession. It shows that Germany had lower unemployment than other major economies during the recession due to short-time work programs. While GDP declined in 2008-2009, unemployment remained stable. Charts show Germany had a large trade surplus and faster GDP growth than European neighbors after the recession. The success is attributed to small and medium Mittelstand companies focused on exports.
