Jackie Brierton appointed as an entrepreneur-in-residence at SRUC

Last week it was announced that GrowBiz CEO, Jackie Brierton, has been appointed as an entrepreneur-in-residence, along with Chief Executive of Highland Rewilding Ltd, Dr Jeremy Leggett, by Scotland’s Rural College (SRUC). The appointment is part of the SRUC’s drive to become an enterprise university at the heart of the sustainable natural economy.

Jackie said: “I am delighted to support SRUC’s ambitious and timely vision to foster and encourage the next generation of entrepreneurs to create sustainable value and to champion the broad range of benefits rural enterprises bring to Scotland as a whole.

“I look forward to collaborating with SRUC academics to build a deeper appreciation of the realities of the diversity and innovation in rural businesses and also, through sharing my experiences and insight with students, to encourage them to develop their own enterprising ideas.”
