The cream of the Scottish business community, including the brains behind popular brand Morphsuits, will come together next week for the inaugural WeDO Scotland conference.
Taking place in Edinburgh on 11 October 2012, the first conference to be hosted by leading entrepreneurial network WeDO Scotland will give high flyers from across the country the chance to learn from each other as well as hear invaluable advice from some of the industry’s most acclaimed experts.
Speakers at the event include non-executive director of Robert Wiseman Dairies, Jack Perry CBE, who previously held the role of Chief Executive of Scottish Enterprise; along with Morphsuits co-founder Gregor Lawson; former Wall Street trader turned managing partner of Genesis Asset Management, Mike Williams; and IT specialist Martin Mutch who is co-founder and chief executive of software consultancy Rocela.
Alongside the expert talks, workshops on everything from banking disputes to the future of social media will take place during the event.
