GOOD BUSINESS DEBATE WITH CHUKA UMUNNA, SOPHI TRANCHELL (MBE) and KIRSTY WARK

Sophi Tranchell MBE, Managing Director of Divine Chocolate

Shadow Business Secretary Chuka Umunna and enterprise leaders, including Sophi Tranchell MBE of Divine Chocolate Ltd, will take part in the ‘Good Business and how to do it’ debate, chaired by Broadcaster and journalist, Kirsty Wark.

The UK has often felt like a ‘ground zero’ for the world financial catastrophe but it is also the place where radical answers to the destructive forces of capitalism are emerging – from the growing social investment market to new social enterprise models, the UK’s ability to innovate and develop world-changing ideas in social and economic policy remains. But it urgently needs loud support and political traction.

THE EVENT PROGRAMME

  • World-class speakers, high-quality workshops, and up-to-the minute policy thinking
  • Master classes on social investment and engaging with the private sector
  • A managed networking and trading area
  • Practical workshops on sales, start-ups, spin-outs, impact measurement + more
  • 1:1 clinics with experts in the field
