SCDI Influencers' Dinners |
 |
 |
SCDI launched its programme of Influencers’ Dinners in September 1998 as a means of providing members with the opportunity to meet and hear key speakers from both the public and private sectors in relaxed surroundings conducive to informed discussion. Since then over 170 such dinners have been held throughout Scotland. The principal guest is invited to speak under the Chatham House rule for around 20 minutes, after which a wide-ranging discussion is encouraged. Normally, attendance ranges from 40 to 50 senior representatives of SCDI’s membership. In addition to the corporate sector, guests are drawn from the Scottish Parliament, local authorities, the trades unions the voluntary sector and academia. |
