about this room
Rosie Ginday MBE, founder and CEO of Miss Macaroon, in conversation at Aston's John Cadbury House on Corporation Street, 17:30 to 19:30.
Professor Paula Whitehouse, Director of the Aston Centre for Enterprise and Entrepreneurship, hosts. Welcome drinks and networking from 17:30, the conversation itself from 18:00 to 18:45, audience questions until 19:00, then networking. Ginday built Miss Macaroon as a social enterprise, training young people out of work or care alongside running a commercial food business, and the session covers the business journey and what running a company with a social mission actually demands.
a founder who has held a double bottom line together for years, in a format with real audience time rather than a stage interview. Best for social enterprise founders and anyone building a business with a mission attached.
