Who are GlobalScots?

The GlobalScot network is made up of a cross-section of individuals from all corners of the business world. All our members have one thing in common - a strong desire to see Scotland realise its full potential as an economic force on a global scale.

Having achieved success in their chosen fields - almost 50% operate at Chairman, CEO or President level - GlobalScots wish to pass on their skills and the benefits of their experience to a new generation of entrepreneurs who have the drive and vision to expand the Scottish economy.
