The special guest speaker was Barbara Cassani who founded the low cost airline Go with a £25m investment.
5 years later Go was sold to easyJet for £374m. Barbara then spearheaded the successful London 2012 Olympic bid and was voted UK Business Woman of the Year and UK Entrepreneur of the Year. Barbara was a Question Time panellist and after luncheon speaker. It was an exceptional opportunity to hear from one of the most impressive business women on the planet. Not to have been missed!
