Keynote Speaker - Gib Bulloch

Gib Bulloch is an award winning social intrapreneur who consults, writes and speaks on a range of topics relating to the role of business in society. Gib believes passionately in the power of business to change the world and in the power of the individual to change the world of business.

After an early career in BP and Mars, his 'epiphany' came from a year as a business volunteer with VSO in the Balkans in 2000. The next 15 years were spent founding and scaling Accenture’s global "not-for-loss" consulting business, Accenture Development Partnerships. This innovative venture attracted significant media attention, won Accenture international awards for Corporate Social Responsibility and Gib himself was voted the UK’s Management Consultant of the year in 2008.

He left Accenture in 2016 to explore new ways of supporting purpose driven insurgencies within the corporate world and to write his first book: “The Intrapreneur: Confessions of a Corporate Insurgent”. Gib is a Visiting Fellow at Cranfield University and serves on the Board of The END Fund and The League of Intrapreneurs. Gib's book, “The Intrapreneur: Confessions of a Corporate Insurgent” will be on sale at the event, and he will also be signing copies.
