Guest Speakers

Claire Brumby - "Life. Business. Food" - Leeds

Claire Brumby is a coach, mentor, speaker & consultant working with food businesses nationally and internationally from start-up to established ones looking for growth.

She founded a multi-award winning healthier snacking brand, is the best-selling author of The Winning Mix, and a Channel Relay Swimmer, all in all pushing herself well out of any comfort zone!

Claire’s journey has provided a bounty of experience both good and challenging; bringing a brand from a dream to conception and reality. Claire can articulate this not only through the eyes of an entrepreneur but also as a woman, wife and mum of three children.

Claire has many a tale to tell from how she found herself invited to St James Palace, to networking with royalty, pitching on Dragons Den and rubbing shoulders with celebrities. She is also a proud mum to her three children, a Virgin Start-up Mentor, a judge for the Quality Food and Great Taste Awards and writes and deliver seminars, workshops and masterclasses for clients.

Rosie Joly - "Top Tips for Start-Up Success" - London

Rosie was previously head of sales at PROPERCORN, growing the business from start-up to SME over the course of 4 years. (During this time, the business transformed from 5 to 50 employees and was also listed as the 5th fastest growing company in Europe - so needless to say it was quite a journey!).

She has now joined Young Foodies: the UK's community of the most exciting startup brands in Food & Drink. Young Foodies' mission is to make small brands mighty, and was founded on the belief in collaboration over competition. Now over 400 brands strong, this members-only portal connects early-stage food and drink startups with experts and resources to help small businesses tackle day-to-day challenges.

Rosie's presentation will focus on Young Foodies' top tips for startup success, and how to overcome some of the key challenges that food & drink entrepreneurs face.
