This business conference will once again bring top business leaders from many Celtic Nations to share their success stories, collaborate, and strength existing ties. The one day event, open the the public, will be full of inspiring keynotes, fireside chats, round tables, and networking that you definitely shouldn’t miss. Special thanks to our organizing partners Cap l'Orient agglomération, Breizh Amerika, Festival Interceltique de Lorient, Western Development Commission, Scottish Business Network, Wales France Business Forum, and CCI du Morbihan. This prestigious event will be under the patronage of Jean-Yves Le Drian, former French Minister for Foreign Affairs and Europe. ​​Don't miss this unique opportunity to meet the leaders of the Celtic economic world, to make valuable contacts and to discuss current issues that shape the future of our economy." - Charles Kergaravat, Founder Interceltic Business Forum
"Delighted to be once again supporting the Interceltic Business Forum in Lorient in August.

Here is a post from Russell announcing his key note talk on the topic of GovTech and Scotland’s engagement of the diaspora for the betterment of business:

"Though my major focus was on establishing opportunities for Scottish and Brittany-based companies it was a real privilege to meet some of the key players in our Celtic world. Where else would such a diverse group be gathered together ranging from the First Minister of Wales Mark Drakeford, the British Ambassador to France Menna Rawlings, Linda Taylor leader of the Cornwall Council and Hilary Beirne, a hero of mine, who founded the incredible St. Patricks Day Parade in New York? There is a growing movement around the world of finding ways to bring together communities with similar interests for trade, culture and philanthropic purposes. I am proud of Scottish Business Network's efforts to play a part in this movement." - Russell Dalgleish, Founding Chair of SBN
