FTY Lab, Poole
What does it take to turn a simple idea into a product stocked nationwide? Join Dorset Chamber’s latest Future Leaders event, aimed at young professionals aged 18–35, to unpack the real story behind entrepreneurial success, hear practical lessons from the journey, and gain insight into building a brand from the ground up.
Hear from Emma Burke, founder of Laceeze and entrepreneur from Dragon’s Den, as she shares the story behind building her business. Learn how she took a clever solution to market, navigated national exposure, and scaled a brand.
Guests will have the opportunity to network over pizza and refreshments, creating space to connect with like-minded professionals. You’ll also have the chance to explore FTY Lab and see first-hand how this state-of-the-art facility is using technology to push the limits of sports training.
This event is part of Future Leaders, a series designed to support the personal and professional development of young professionals aged up to 35. Sponsored by Forvis Mazars and Frettens Solicitors, the programme offers events focusing on various themes, from effective networking to entrepreneurship.
