Elmwood College in Fife is holding a conference highlighting the role played by thriving food and drink businesses in Scotland's economy and future prosperity. The event takes place on Thursday November 10.
The Cupar-based college also hopes to introduce a fresh thinking strategy for the further education sector to engage with the food and drink industry.
Opening the conference on 10th November is James Withers, recently-appointed Chief Executive of Scotland Food & Drink.
Other speakers include Jane Stewart (Anster Cheese), Fiona and Nikki Pollock (Ardross Farm Shop), Alex and Jane Nicol (Spencerfield Spirit Co) and Michael Clark, a former hospitality student of Elmwood College.
