Jude McCorry talks about the importance of re-educating the Scottish workforce to provide jobs and support the Scottish tech industry. She also talks about how working from home has proven to businesses that mothers can (and do) thrive in flexible working environments while looking after children. 

Jude started as CEO of the Scottish Business Resilience Centre three weeks before Scotland's Covid-19 lockdown came into effect. In that time she's re-positioned the SBRC to support businesses struggling with the effects of Covid-19 and built out the SBRC's support system, while working remotely with her team.

Robert Gelb, CEO of online events platform HeySummit, talks about the finding the resilience that comes with running a business during a pandemic (including unexpected growth), building value before seeking venture capital funding and how you take traditional in person trade shows and make them successful online. 

Rob has successfully built and exited a number of businesses and is currently growing HeySummit out of his base in Edinburgh. HeySummit is a virtual events platform that incorporates live and pre-recorded events, as well as offering a bespoke online events service.
