We’ll enjoy dinner, drinks & a chance to meet other entrepreneurs, followed by an after-dinner talk and informal Q&A with Caroline Harding-Gelbard.
Caroline is GM UK & Senior Director of International Expansion at Paperless Post. She previously lead international expansion at Stella & Dot.
Caroline will share her story, as well as insights for those who are considering international expansion now or in the future, or are interested in the process. Caroline’s informal after dinner talk will cover vital considerations like identifying the right markets to expand to, translation versus localisation and managing overseas growth alongside a rapidly growing domestic business. The conversation will also cover the people side of going global; setting up product/tech and marketing teams to support global expansion, and resourcing locally. There will be plenty of chance for questions.
This dinner is open to entrepreneurs and will be particularly interesting for those ready or planning for overseas expansion or just interested in how it would work.
It will be an amazing opportunity to network with other like-minded entrepreneurs to share ideas, challenges and experiences, as well as to talk to Caroline informally over dinner.
