In most of the 33 regions of the FSB, staff look after their own section of our website. Managing this is no easy job but with recent changes to the design of the site and other improvements including our new benefits section, we hope to provide a great experience for all our viewers.

Tablet Madness

You could be forgiven, when reading the papers, for thinking that the world has gone iPad2 mad, certainly the amazing tablet from Apple has triggered off a bunch of new designs as competitors frantically push products out to replicate Apple's original success.. and indications are that businesses are getting on-board with these devices. The iPad2 is certainly the right size and looks beautiful - internally within the FSB some of us are starting to use these to replace paper - and it's working.. but we've a LONG way to go. I seem to recall the "paperless office" was going to happen - oh, late last century!

Enjoy the website and please do visit our benefits section to see the many benefits of membership of the FSB, the UK's Leading Business Organisation -- and expect more changes to the website.
