It is a sad fact that most start-ups fail. Indeed, only 20% will make it to their sixth birthday.

But success is not dependent upon being a "genius" or having the "perfect" business idea. Successful entrepreneurs of course have the drive and will to succeed, but they also have something else. They have the critical skills, the action plan to battle each stage of development, and the right team and partners around them.

Brad will show you the "10 Rules of Engagement for Start-up Success" to help ensure that your start-up survives, grows, and ultimately can be sold for a premium.

Each of the 10 Rules will be brought alive with real life examples from Brad’s time at Virgin and also his own successful ventures.

Brad Rosser's Biography

After gaining a first class degree and then an MBA from Cornell University, at just 24 Brad was working alongside Australia’s then most successful entrepreneur Alan Bond, and the nation’s best deal maker, Peter Beckwith.

After leaving Bond Corporation Brad joined the London office of McKinsey & Co., the world’s most prestigious management consultancy.

Brad then became a part of the inner sanctum at Virgin as Head of Corporate Development for the Virgin Group, effectively Sir Richard Branson’s right-hand man for all new start-ups. This was a pivotal time for Virgin as it embarked on an aggressive campaign to enter new industries. Brad oversaw the launch of Virgin Active, Virgin Money, and Virgin Vie, amongst others.

On leaving Virgin, Brad’s first project Brad was helping Unilever to set up Unilever Ventures, Unilever’s incubation arm in the UK.

Since then, Brad has become a successful serial entrepreneur with interests in property development, mortgage broking, online cashback, customer loyalty programmes, and financial services. Brad is also the co-founder of The BSF Group (www.thebsfgroup.com).

Over the last 20 years, Brad has raised more than $2 billion in funding for start-ups and has nurtured and ultimately sold businesses with values ranging from several million to hundreds of millions of dollars.
