They are part of the region’s annual Business Week, which is supported by a number of organisations including Dumfries and Galloway Council and the CX Project.

Among the highlights of the packed programme was a Dumfries and Galloway ‘Investing for Growth Dinner’ for invited guests at Smiths Hotel, Gretna Green.

A keynote speaker was Andrew Spencer, a well-known leadership development consultant, who has helped a cross-section of large international companies design and deliver significant people and team development programmes.
