Today I'm really pleased to welcome my friend and experienced radio host Prab Chadha. We'll be chatting about education and local authority cuts and how they may affect growing businesses.
Prab has been hosting his own 2 hour show in Cardiff for over 12 months and has had some great guests. I'm hoping he'll have his usual interesting and though provoking comments.
Watch out for Prab's latest business, he's a serious serial entrepreneur, at http://www.cardiffbusinessonline.com. Prab, 37, came up with the idea of developing a local online directory after talking to local businesses who said they were struggling with the current economic climate and with more and more national stores cropping up around the city and offering free parking that they couldn’t compete with.
After personally visiting local businesses, Prab managed to sign up about 100 businesses to the directory, and with the launch of the website very recent and with over 20,000 local businesses registered in Cardiff, that number is sure to grow.
DUE TO CIRCUMSTANCES BEYOND CONTROL THE INTERVIEW WITH LETITIA VALENTINE HAS BEEN POSTONED UNTIL A LATER DATE. WATCH FOR MORE DETAILS.
I am delighted to talk with Letitia Valentine whom I met twice in the Autumn last year. It is interesting to hear about the latest developments with her business.

Surviva Company directors are to appear on hit BBC2 programme Dragons’ Den this Monday at 9pm.
A brief glimpse of the pair was seen on Mondays episode (16th August) as they faced a grilling from the millionaire business people.
Letitia Valentine and Alex Lewis, the inventors of the Surviva Jak™– the jacket designed to prevent and treat hypothermia and shock – were looking for an investment in their company Surviva™.
The pair came up with the idea of the Surviva Jak™ a year ago and the story behind the invention is an extreme one. The pair were cycling up in the Brecon Beacons when hypothermia struck. It was this brush with death that led to the invention of the Surviva Jak™ and the business has grown from there.
“Facing the Dragons was a terrifying experience, but thats all I can say about it. You will have to watch the programme to see if we were sucessfull!” said Letitia.
Tune in to BBC 2 at 9pm on Monday 23rd to see what happened. The programme is repeated again on Sunday 29th at 9pm.
