Inspire CEO on line-up for final Digital Taunton event of year

Rob Perks, CEO of South West business support service Inspire, is the spotlight speaker at this month’s Digital Taunton event on November 28.

He will be speaking on the need for a well-thought-through business strategy and digital strategy at an event that will also be live-streamed.

Rob is a qualified business strategist and develops Inspire’s services to SMEs while helping to deliver first-rate strategy and business growth advice to clients.

Digital Taunton has created an active cluster for the digital community in the Taunton area whose members have a desire to collaborate, innovate, network and share knowledge with like-minded companies and individuals.

Its aim is to attract and retain talented individuals by showcasing the wealth and breadth of digital career opportunities available in the local area and place the town’s digital expertise firmly on the map.

“I am delighted to be speaking at this month’s Digital Taunton event,” said Rob.

“Digital Taunton are doing a huge amount of inspiring work to future-proof the local business community and it is a wonderful initiative.

“Digital is so important for all businesses now and every business strategy must embrace the fourth industrial revolution or risk extinction.”

The event will be hosted by Jeremy Hyams, co-founder of Digital Taunton, and joining Rob on the bill is Jon Air, Serial Tech Entrepreneur and Founder of Company Space, and Adam Sharpe, CEO Of Cardstream and Fintech Entrepreneur.

Jeremy provided a dynamic keynote speech on Digital Taunton and how he founded and built Claims Consortium Group, for which he is Chief Executive Officer, at Inspire’s recent launch of its service into Devon.

And he is delighted that Rob will return the favour.

“Rob brings a wide range of expertise and he has had an outstanding career, from heading teams with large corporates such as NatWest and Bank of Ireland to starting several businesses on his own,” said Jeremy.

“He will provide a great voice for our final Digital Taunton session of 2019.”
