EP106: "From Start Up to Scale Up: The Founder's Journey with Ruth Yarnit, Co-Founder & CEO of LeadDev

The Dan Assor Show #eventprofs

My guest for this episode is Ruth Yarnit Co-Founder and CEO of LeadDev (formerly White October Events). Ruth co-founded LeadDev in 2013 with Dave Fletcher.

Started as a small UK conference, the LeadDev team have developed their content function for their community as well as now running conferences in London, Berlin, New York and the West Coast of America. Their chosen audience, leaders of software engineering teams, had a proven appetite for events and a community to help them develop their tech, teams and tools to advance their businesses.

The conversation provides an educational insight into Ruth's personal journey as a co-founder: from the origins of the business, the successes, leadership, as well as the challenges faced and how she has overcome them. Find out how they have scaled from a small local conference to a reputable community focused, international brand. https://leaddev.com/ This episode is brought to you in collaboration with Collingwood Advisory who help media and information entrepreneurs to create value, combining scaleup and M&A advisory. https://collingwood-advisory.com/
