Hey Ipswich! We're Rose, Rebecca and Stokely, Co-founders of Generation E (GEN-E) networking events. The concept is simple: networking events designed for young professionals. Since September 2021, we have hosted five of these events in our hometown of Norwich which have seen 100 tickets sell out every time. We figured if the need is there in Norwich, let's share the love with Ipswich! We can't wait to meet you all. Only 50 tickets available for this event!
About the speaker 🎤
For those of you who are new to GEN-E we provide plenty of opportunity to network, as well as hosting a guest speaker who will deliver an engaging presentation on a relevant matter. The guest speaker for this event will be Scott Russell, Founder and CEO of Suffolk based coffee brand Paddy & Scott’s.
Scott is a former EADT East Anglian business person of year and the driving force in making Paddy & Scott’s one of the UK’s top independent coffee brands and proud member of Accelerate 250 (the UK’s top 250 companies geared for growth) after being championed by the Prime Ministers Enterprise Advisor Lord Young and ex Tesco CEO Sir Terry Leahy.
In 2016 Scott founded the Meru Farm and Ruiga School project in Kenya, a world first collaboration between the consumer and coffee grower driving sustainability and education whilst breaking down trade barriers that encourages free trade amongst the whole coffee growing community.
In 2017 Scott was named by Grant Thornton as one of the countries top 100 influential business leaders joining the illustrious list of “Faces of a Vibrant Economy”
Scott was made an honorary fellow of Suffolk University in 2018 🎤
