28th April 2010 @ The British Club:
It was an awesome night of creativity, ideas, innovation and laughs with Frederik Haren, a leading thinker in creativity in the world and author of “The Idea Book” and founder of interesting.org.
A total of 14 people from SIP @ NYP turned up for the event, and everyone had a great thought-provoking and fun time. 
We are very excited to announce that we’re expecting great things this year 2010!
We are in the midst of talks with various people in NYP, SEG, SBM and Student Affairs – to firmly establish our club this year. Even the School of Engineering has launched a new module, “Social Enterprise” for the new academic year of 2010/2011.
Our club is a new club, and hence we really need fresh passionate people to come on board!
We firmly believe that everyone has strengths and abilities, and we have many roles that you can take on or even create one for yourself.

“Turning Good Ideas into Great Business”
Creativity is more than just creating – it is about turning what you create into a successful and sustainable business model. Learn how to use your creativity to turn your ides into a global success story.
Most writers on creativity do not practice what they preach, as the books they publish tell others to be different in order to succeed yet they do not dare to break the mould. Listen to expert author and speaker Fredrik Haren speak on how he doesn’t just write about creativity – but uses his own creativity techniques. Learn about innovative way s of creating, producing, promoting, marketing and selling and idea from a man who has done it successfully himself.
The Idea Book is a global best selling business creativity book that has sold to more than 40 countries and been translated into nine languages. The Idea Book has also been included in the recently published American Book “ The 100 best Business Books of all Time” What They Say, Why They Matter, And How They Can Help You”, which is a remarkable achievement considering it has only been published for a relatively short period of time.
It has sold more than 150,000 copies in Sweden alone (where a management book is considered a “Best Seller” if it sells 5000 copies), and 1% of the population got the book in less than 30 days after it was launched in Iceland. During this talk, Fredrik Haren will share his experiences in turning a good idea into a great business.
