Spotting opportunity in disruption

When the pandemic made Gail Irvine's core business model unsustainable, she didn't scale down – she redesigned.

In this 30-minute session, Gail shares the real story behind that reinvention and offers practical strategies any small business can use to pivot, simplify and scale, even with limited resources.

This session is ideal for founders, community interest companies (CICs) and business owners navigating change, uncertainty or growth.
