 Emerge: How To build a successful team and deliver on your mission

Join this engaging session led by business leader Chris Dalrymple and learn about a fundamental aspect of growing a business - building a team that believes in the mission.
 
Chris has worked in digital businesses for all of his 20+ year career, across a range of roles from marketing to product, innovation to ecommerce. Most recently Chris was co-founder of EV Charging SaaS startup, Mina, which he sold to Fleetcor in 2023. Chris is particularly interested in business culture and ways of working, purpose driven startups (Mina was a B Corp) and supporting the next generation of entrepreneurs to build purpose-led startups.
