One of my hopes when accepting the responsibility of Chancellor or Edinburgh Napier University was to help seek new ventures and inspirations. To create events to inspire not only those who trust us with some of their most precious years of their lives but as part of a forward thinking new University’s hopes to contribute to a wider audience.

With this in mind and the support of the University’s Principal and University Board I launched ‘The Chancellor Talk Series” in 2016 with the hope to bring to Scotland those at the very pinnacle of their profession, who are highly regarded on an international level.

We’ve aimed to bring the best of the best for others to hear and be inspired by, therefore I’m absolutely delighted to announce our next guest will be Ann Daniels. As a single mother with young triplets and no outdoor experience Ann dared to dream big and in responding to a newspaper article was selected as part of the first all women expedition to the North Pole. Ann’s story is truly inspirational and I hope you’ll join us on the 17th May.

If your company is interested in supporting these talks then please drop me an email as I’d love to chat.
