Emerging technologies are redefining the ways in which we interact, work and do business. At Inspiring Entrepreneurs: Digital Disruptors on Monday, February 11, you’ll hear how our panel built their businesses around bold ideas using digital innovation.

The event will be moderated by Dr Anne-Marie Imafidon MBE, founder of STEMettes and the panel includes Pip Jamieson, founder of The Dots, an online community of creative professionals, Sukhi Jutla, co-founder of MarketOrders, an online B2B platform for the gold and diamond jewellery industry, and more still to be announced.

Ahead of the screening, we will be joined in the Mitchell Library by Dr Claire Quigley, STEM coordinator, and Hazel Kyle, Employability Skills Project coordinator.
