On 19th August (10 – 11.15 am), we’ll be talking about Economic Recovery Post Covid - A New Enterprise Landscape. The enterprise landscape is one that is continually evolving, but now more than ever, what does this mean for start-up and growth businesses in Scotland? What may become of the sector in the next few years?
