35:12Welcome to the Scottish Business Network podcast. For the 100 episode of the SBN podcast I had the pleasure of speaking with a truly remarkable individual, Russell Dalgleish, the founder and chairperson of the Scottish Business Network. Russell is a dynamic leader with a career that spans decades and industries, from technology to global networking. His journey, which he refers to as one of luck and perseverance, has been marked by pivotal moments, from his early days in computing to his role as a connector of the global Scottish diaspora. Russell's vision for the Scottish Business Network has been instrumental in building a vibrant community that supports Scottish businesses and entrepreneurs worldwide. His experiences, from standing on a plinth in Trafalgar Square to navigating the challenges of the 2008 recession, have shaped his belief in the power of community, resilience, and the importance of asking for help. In this interview, I explore Russell's insights on leadership, his philosophy of helping others, and the unique challenges and opportunities within Scottish culture. Whether you're an expat looking to reconnect with your roots or a member of the Scottish Business Network, this conversation promises to inspire and inform. I give you Russell Dalgleish….…

Welcome to today's episode, where we have the absolute honour of hosting a remarkable individual who epitomises resilience, determination, and the sheer power of the human spirit. Our guest today is none other than Martin Perry, a phenomenal Paralympian who is about to embark on yet another incredible journey—competing in the Paris Paralympics in table tennis. Martin's story is nothing short of inspiring. Born with congenital limb deficiency, Martin could have easily let this define his limitations, but instead, he has used it as a platform to build an extraordinary career. Growing up amidst financial challenges, he developed a resilience that has propelled him to the very pinnacle of his sport. As Martin himself says, 'My disability was just life, but it was the financial struggles my family faced that truly built the character and resilience within me.' Throughout his career, Martin has been a beacon of motivation, not just in sports but also as a public speaker, inspiring countless individuals around the world. Whether he's sharing his journey with schoolchildren, playing table tennis with no hands—a feat he jokingly describes as 'absolutely stupid'—or representing causes close to his heart, such as Preventing Ocean Plastic, Martin's impact is profound. In this podcast, we'll delve into Martin's incredible journey—from the trials and tribulations of narrowly missing qualification to the emotional moment of discovering he had made it to the Paralympics, and the unwavering support of his wife, Siobhan, who he lovingly refers to as his number one supporter, despite her indifference to table tennis. Join us as we explore the life and mindset of a true champion, someone who lives by the words of Winston Churchill: 'Success is not final, failure is not fatal, but it is the courage to continue that counts.' Without further ado, let's hear Martin’s story ……

22:32Welcome to the last of three special episodes of the Scottish Business Network podcast in partnership with the UK Government’s Department of Business and Trade and, in particular, its International Markets Team for Latin America and the Caribbean. And here's a questions for you... Did you know that one of the most popular dishes in Brazil is sushi? That's a consequence of another fact that may or may not surprise you in that Brazil is home to 1.5m people of Japanese descent – one of the biggest Japanese communities outside Japan itself. Stay with me because that is a valuable fact for the Scottish seafood industry, and in particular salmon producers, because there is a huge opportunity to sell high-quality Scottish salmon to the sushi chefs of Brazil. That’s exactly why as part of the Government’s Seafood Exports Package, the Department of Business and Trade, in collaboration with Defra and Seafood Scotland, recently brought some of Brazil’s most influential sushi chefs over to Scotland to demonstrate what is on offer. This initiative was led by Iseabail Mactaggart, Deputy Director for Scotland at the UK Government’s Department of Business and Trade, and she explains all in this episode. If you would like to find out more about trade opportunities in Brazil or elsewhere in Latin America and the Caribbean, you can simply email the International Markets Team at exportsupport.latac@fcdo.gov.uk or, as Iseabail mentions in this episode, DBTScotland@businessandtrade.gov.uk. And do listen to the two other episodes in this series, you’ll find them by seareching for: Spencer Mahony: Our Man in Mexico Robin Sampson: Trade Spaces in Colombia”…

Welcome to the second of three special episodes of the Scottish Business Network podcast in partnership with the UK Government’s Department of Business and Trade and, in particular, its International Markets Team for Latin America and the Caribbean.

He also casts a fresh light on countries that perhaps don’t always get the most balanced coverage in the media. For anyone interested in trade opportunities with this part of the world, it’s a great listen.

Welcome to three special episodes of the Scottish Business Network in partnership with the UK Government’s Department for Business and Trade and, in particular, its International Markets Team for Latin America and the Caribbean. In this first episode, we hear the fascinating story of Robin Sampson, founder of Trade in Space, an Edinburgh-based business that is flourishing in Colombia. Trade in Space uses satellite data and blockchain traceability to enable agricultural supply chains to meet their ethical and sustainability targets. In particular, Robin and his team are playing a hugely positive role in developing transparency within the Colombian coffee market. Robin demonstrates opportunities available in Latin American countries that may not be on the radar of many Scottish businesses. He also explains how the International Markets team and the British Embassy in Bogota have played a key role in his success.

If you’ve had any interaction with the Scottish marketing industry, you will almost certainly have heard of Tayburn, one of the leading agencies in Scotland for more than four decades. Our guest in this episode is Richard Simpson, who joined Tayburn 14 years ago, before participating in a management buyout to become co-owner and joint managing director. Several other large agencies have fallen by the wayside over the years, but Tayburn has successfully adapted over and over again to the rapid transformation of the market-place. Originally known for traditional branding and annual reports, the company then moved into the design and build of websites, before repositioning itself as a creative strategic partner. Richard explains his thoughts on marketing and the challenges of running a business in difficult times. We also hear about his passion for sport (particularly rugby and CrossFit), his love of sneakers and what he likes to rustle up in the kitchen.

When Tynah Matembe and her husband moved from Uganda to Edinburgh, they fell in love with Scotland. However, when the contrast in cultures left them feeling isolated, they embarked on a mission to create a social group bringing together others with an African background. Little did they realise what it would lead to. With their new friends increasingly turning to them as de facto community leaders, they set up a charity called PASSION4FUSION, designed to help migrants integrate into Scottish society. And three years later, in 2018, they launched MoneyMatiX, an organisation that supports ethnic minorities with financial inclusion and effective financial management. In this interview with Christine Esson, Tynah explains her fascinating story – and how her husband's sudden disappearance in an ASDA car park proved pivotal to their entrepreneurial adventures.…

40:29When Edinburgh-raised Neil McInnes and his childhood friend Andy Whitmey were still in their 20s, they spotted an opportunity in the residential lettings market. Having both experienced poor service from letting agencies as tenants, they believed that the fusty image of solicitors in pin-striped suits was due a shake-up, with much greater care and attention paid to the way that both property owners and tenants were looked after. 15 years on, Umega Lettings has around 50 staff and, in December 2021, it was voted UK Letting Agency of the Year. Neil, who was once literally the poster boy for Scotland’s Entrepreneurial Spark initiative, also has some very interesting views on the eco-system for Scottish start-ups and what he believes to be a misplaced emphasis on encouraging young entrepreneurs to sell equity and plan for an early exit, rather than organically growing the sort of long-term, Scottish-owned businesses that are the lifeblood of our economy.
