About the event
Why do businesses in the US have a greater chance of scaling up than in the UK?
One of the answers is simpler than you think – a strong belief that peer-to-peer networking can help your business grow.
Richard Harpin, co-founder of HomeServe and owner of Business Leader, shares this sentiment, acknowledging that he could have scaled his billion-pound business in less time if he had access to a peer group for support.
That’s why, through Business Leader, Richard is on a mission to create a membership organisation specifically for mid-size businesses with revenues between £3 million and £100 million.
Join us on January 23, 2025, for our membership taster workshop focused on scaling your business.
Start 2025 off with a new peer group to lean on, learn from, share your insights with and ultimately to help grow your business further.
Guest Speaker: James Watt – Co-founder of BrewDog
James Watt of BrewDog will share his insights on the challenges, opportunities, and lessons from his entrepreneurial journey.
You’ll also have the chance to participate in small, facilitated discussions with fellow founders and CEOs, where you can explore solutions to the key pain points of growing your business.
