Change Makers Summit & Breakfast with Andy Street
about the event
Downtown in Business Birmingham is hosting an exciting morning of debate, discussion, and networking – followed by a fabulous lunch – at the amazing Grand Hotel, Birmingham, on Tuesday 24th October, 8.00am-1.00pm.
This exclusive Change Makers Live Summit will kick off with a conversation between the West Midlands Mayor Andy Street, and DIB Group chair and chief executive Frank McKenna.
We will then hear from a panel of regeneration experts who are making a significant difference to Birmingham’s innovation, tech, and investment offer. Rob Valentine from Bruntwood Sciontec, Maggie Grogan of Muse Developments, and Arcadis Director Simon Marks will discuss the vast range of initiatives and opportunities across the city and the West Midlands region.
To round up an impressive morning of presentations, we will be joined by Aleks Subic Vice Chancellor and CEO of Aston University and the new Vice Chancellor of the University Wolverhampton Professor Ebrahim Adia.
And to prove that there is such a thing as a free lunch – we will end this half-day event by feeding you.
