Last i had reported we had made the first cuts of a couple business plan competitions...well, I am so pleased to report that we made it even further (though not all the way :() we were basically placed 6 out of 70entrants in one of them and an honorable mention in the other... top 8 out of over 100...for this one we win an in kind prize of over 500pounds!! yahooo... The best part of it was getting feedback and talking to some key investors. Was extremely exciting to hear how interested the were in U4U and I was extremely honored to hear some very good feedback on the strategy/professionalism/team/results so far....

Well thats all for now, back to the phone to finalise the rest of the great companies who will be joining us in CELEBRATING TEEN GIRLS!!!!!!!!
