Empowering the Business Community
At Livingston James, we actively manage our network through our high-quality events programme, encouraging debate and stimulating discussion across the business community of Scotland. We run interactive roundtable events, sponsor flagship conferences, and host ‘meet-ups’ inviting high profile business leaders from a range of sectors and organisations to share their experiences and insights into the ever-changing business landscape.
The purpose of running such an event programme is to provide the ideal opportunity for executives, non-executives and intermediaries from the Scottish market to gather in order to expand networks with likeminded people, share insights on important topics impacting business and drive important initiatives that affect the communities in which we all live.
As the team at Livingston James reflects on the first half of the year, we are proud to have hosted and attended a number of event series focused on addressing important topics impacting business leaders. We are privileged to have partnered and co-hosted with several notable businesses and it is encouraging to see such positive interaction from the business community. There is great power in an engaged network!
You can see some of the events we have held and attended so far in 2024 on our events page. Please reach out to Sophie Randles to learn of any upcoming events.
