SOCIAL entrepreneurs from across Argyll came together in Oban last Wednesday and Thursday as part of Argyll Enterprise Week -and faced ‘dragons’ for an investment pot.
The event kicked off with a social enterprise film event hosted at Oban Phoenix Cinema - itself a social enterprise - with a selection of inspiring short films.
Thursday included a network session where more than 40 enterprises met up to share their experiences. Fraser Kelly from Social Enterprise Scotland and Laura Worku from the Scottish Government gave the national perspective on social enterprise. Workshops on finance, managing staff and leadership were well-attended and informative.
