Speaking at Battle Labs in Dorset for Stride

I was the keynote speaker at the STRIDE Dorset Innovation for Business Conference titled ‘Making the Change for Tomorrow’.

I was among a dozen top speakers at the free event on February 12, which was held in the BattleLab at the Dorset Innovation Park in Wool, near Dorchester.

Jessica Dennis, who is coordinating the STRIDE Dorset conference, said: “Nicole is a superb speaker who will inform, inspire and entertain in equal measure.

“Confirming her at the conference was a real coup and delegates will learn a great deal from what she has to say.
