Keynote Address by The Deputy First Minister of Scotland, Mr John Swinney MSP.

Gain practical insights from Business in the Community Scotland & early adopters of the Pledge, such as GlaxoSmithKline & KCP Ltd as they share how their organisations have made an impact on their local communities and how your business can make it’s own commitment to the Scottish Business Pledge today.

Case Study Focus Groups/Panel Discussions led by Business in the Community Scotland, KCP, GSK & Heart of Midlothian Football Club.

Edinburgh Napier University and the Voluntary Action Fund are undertaking research on the relationship between business and the third sector in Scotland.
