My Upcoming September and October 2013 Business Events

21 August, 2013

I’ve got a busy couple of months coming up for events, so I thought I’d share some of them with you – and maybe see some of you there?

My upcoming Autumn 2013 events calendar:

  • Merseyside & Lancashire MOB event, Liverpool, 12th September
  • Institute of Directors (IOD) Annual Convention, London, 18th September
  • Leeds Business Week, Leeds, 23rd – 27th September
  • Brand Yorkshire, Harrogate, 2nd October

Merseyside & Lancashire MOB event

I am delighted to have been invited back as a speaker to the upcoming Merseyside & Lancashire MOB event.

MOB = Marketing Our Business. This mob event is focusing on Marketing, Growth and Efficiency: helping your business survive today’s competitive market. Organised by the Linkedin group ‘The Merseyside and Lancashire MOB’, this event is sponsored by Williams MINI Liverpool and is supporting the Linda McCartney Cancer Centre.

Speakers include:

  • Graham Jones, Practical Solutions To Making Your Business Grow
  • Jennifer Lambden, Financial Habits To Improve Efficiency
  • Donna Stewart, Clearing Your Mind For Business
  • Jonny Ross, Google+101, Using Google’s Social Media Giant
  • Kevin Gallagher, Discounting Can Be Bad For Business

The event is being run in conjunction with 31 year old Sheena Privett, diagnosed with breast cancer in January and now undergoing eight chemotherapy treatment cycles. She has committed to raising funds for the Centre this year – let’s help her.

Institute of Directors (IOD) 2013 Annual Convention

I am really looking forward to going to the annual Institute of Directors (IOD) 2013 convention at the Royal Albert Hall. The IoD Annual Convention has been running for over 60 years and is one of UK’s leading business conferences.

There are some exceptional speakers this year, including Richard Branson, Joanna Shields (CEO of tech city, former VP and MD of Facebook EMEA), Boris Johnson, Matt Brittin (VP of Google Northern Ireland and Central Europe), Jack Welch (General Electric’s youngest and most successful CEO) and Terry Smith (founder of Fundsmith).

Look out for future blogs about some of these talks!

Leeds Business Week 2013

They call it “a one-week business degree”. Leeds Business Week brings together the city’s leaders, big business, SMEs, public sector, arts and culture, charities and social enterprises, networking and business membership groups, creative and digital sectors and Leeds City Council.

“Together, we’re sharing great content, staging some terrific events, networking and building better business relationships. We are Stronger together.”

Leeds Business Week 2013 is being run in association with the Yorkshire Mafia. There is SO much going on, at venues across Leeds throughout the week. View the full Leeds Business Week 2013 calendar here.

Look out for a workshop I’m running with my associate Victoria Tomlinson from Northern Lights PR on Tuesday 24th (for full details click here ). Victoria is a fantastic speaker and a BBC expert woman on social media and business, having recently appeared on BBC Breakfast TV and Woman’s Hour.

Also check out some events being held at Carrwood Park – one of my website development clients and some of the most exceptional Grade A serviced office and meeting spaces in Leeds.

Brand Yorkshire 2013 Conference

Brand Yorkshire was set up to help businesses in the Yorkshire region develop and grow. The annual conference is a great event that brings together businesspeople from across the region to develop business interests and connect with people who can help them. Join the Brand Yorkshire LinkedIn group to keep in touch with the discussions.

The Brand Yorkshire motto: “Let’s work together, let’s learn together, because together we can achieve more.”

The 2013 Brand Yorkshire Brand Conference and Exhibition is being staged with Pavilions of Harrogate. Inspirational speakers this year include Sarah Stevenson MBE, the first British Taekwondo World Champion ever, and Jamie Peacock MBE, arguably the greatest player in the Rugby Superleague era.

So a very busy couple of months! Really excited to be getting out and about across the UK to meet, mix with and learn from some of the UK’s best business minds! As usual, I will be live tweeting from the events and (when I get chance!) will be blogging about some of the talks and the events.

If you are coming along to any of these events, please let me know on Twitter and come say ‘hi’ in person – I look forward to speaking to and meeting some of you very soon!
