Attracting global disruptors to the North
Ahead of the upcoming free one day conference, Disruptors North, TheBusinessDesk.com is hosting an in person seminar that will consider the North’s strengths and analyse how it can make the most of its current successes in attracting Tech-led FDI projects to deliver economic growth.
Attendees at this free breakfast seminar hosted at Nexus in Leeds will hear from Sir Roger Marsh OBE about how the North’s tradition of innovation is helping shape its future attractiveness as well as from founder of dynamic start-up WeDrifters Naudia Salmon about why she chose to relocate to the region to support her business.
Marsh and Salmon will also be joined by Gordon Bateman, the founder of Investor Ladder, a non-commercial, invite-only network which brings together equity investors from all stages, geographies and sectors to focus on the North of England. Together they will discuss why a number of global businesses and investors are currently focusing their eyes on the North and how we can capitalise upon this to for the benefit of the whole Northern economy.
