Professor Terri Scott, Principal and CEO Northern Regional College said:
“We are delighted to welcome a speaker of Mr Farrell’s stature to address our conference and to facilitate a workshop with local business leaders and aspiring entrepreneurs. Northern Ireland’s economic growth and job creation is dependent on innovation and leadership across our business community and a more entrepreneurial economy. At Northern Regional College we are committed to working in partnership with local businesses in the development of curriculum enabling our students to make a contribution to building our economy. Larry Farrell inspires and educates us all about what that takes”.
June Ingram, Director of Skills & Industry Division in the Department for Employment and Learning (DEL) said:
“Events such as this have the potential to make a huge impact on those attending. An idea from just the right source, at the right time, can have an impressive and even disproportionate impact. Across the UK as well as globally, entrepreneurship has gained its place as an area of interest for individual and businesses that aspire to succeed. It’s also an area of particular interest for DEL as the Department for Employment and Learning commences a review of Leadership and Management in Northern Ireland.”
