Join us for an engaging half-day event on employee ownership where we seek to foster connection between EO businesses and share insights, opportunities and challenges. We’re bringing together employee ownership leaders and champions from various industries in the South West of England and beyond.

We want to facilitate an exchange of experiences and ideas, exploring both successes and failures in encouraging employees to think like business owners. By sharing the group’s past experiences, we aim to collectively move towards a future of greater employee ownership across all our organisations.

Agenda:

• Overview of employee ownership in the South West from the Employee Ownership Association (eoa).
• Insights from Cornish business Blue Flame Heating and Electrical Solutions, the ‘Employee Owned Transition of the Year’ winner at the 2024 annual eoa conference.
• Advice from Stephens Scown on supporting your workforce from thinking like ‘employees’ to thinking like ‘owners’ from 2023 eoa conference ‘Employee Owner of the Year’ winner Sam Moles.
• Roundtable activities.
• Lunch and networking.

Don’t miss this opportunity to gain valuable insights from your peers and contribute to the advancement of all our employee owned businesses.

The event will open at 10:15am with arrival and networking, and a start to the agenda of activities will begin at 10:45am. We will close at 13:15pm with networking continuing until 14:00pm.
