ISLEXPO 2017 lead speakers announced

Line-up set to inspire business growth

ISLEXPO returns for 2017 with a fresh line-up, after a successful first event in 2016.

It's to take place in the same venue, the Villa Marina on 24 and 25 May, with this year's focus on accelerating business growth.

The theme aims to support the Programme for Government, promoting the Island as an enterprise hub, and a new business 'Eden'.

Lead speakers include the co-founder of business software company EnterpriseJungle, and UNICEF business mentor, Emma Sinclair.

The former head of Google UK and Ireland, and high-profile digital entrepreneur Dan Cobley, will also make an appearance.

A well-known local name is also on the bill - Jim Mellon. A keynote speech from the master investor, author, hotelier, and BioMed driving force is likely to attract delegates' attention. 

Like last year, the expo is being hosted by the Department of Economic Development, including a programme of panel discussions, digital workshops, and expert insight.

More announcements and the full programme of events will be released in April.
