Join partners from across education, industry, policy and the community for a dynamic one-day conference exploring how entrepreneurial thinking can strengthen skills, collaboration and opportunity across the Forth Valley region.
The morning programme opens with networking, a strategic keynote from Professor Ross Tuffee, regional skills insight, and a series of short, sector-focused showcase sessions from schools, colleges and universities. These contributions will highlight what is already happening across the region and how it connects to wider national and regional parties.
In the afternoon, the focus shifts toward employer, SME and social enterprise perspectives. Short case studies, ecosystem insights and community examples will explore what entrepreneurial thinking looks like across different sectors, and where collaboration could develop next. Interactive prompts and facilitated table discussions will support engagement throughout the day, ensuring delegates have space to share insights and make useful connections.
The conference will conclude with a synthesised closing session before moving into optional networking.
