About this Event
Business growth isn’t linear. It’s progress, setbacks, pivots and momentum, often all at once. That’s exactly why we’ve launched NES Business Academy, a new structured learning event series built for founders and business owners across the North-East of Scotland.
Join us on 12 March for our official launch breakfast, the first of five events taking place over the next year.
Delivered in partnership with Blackadders, ActionCOACH, Hall Morrice and Prospect 13, NES Business Academy brings together trusted expertise across legal, finance, business coaching and marketing in one room, at the same time.
NES Business representatives include Gillian Donald, Employment Lawyer & Partner at Blackadders LLP, Suzi Low, Corporate & Commercial Finance Lawyer & Partner at Blackadders LLP, Leanne Hill, Commercial Property Lawyer & Partner at Blackadders LLP, Dr Brenda Hector, Business Coach at ActionCOACH, Louise Smith, Partner at Hall Morrice LLP and Cerri McDonald, Founder & CEO at Prospect 13.
Our experts will help you connect the dots so you can think wider and make better decisions at every stage of business growth.
Places are limited.
Secure your complimentary ticket now and be a part of the first chapter of NES Business Academy.
