Gillian Beck, one of our Ambassadors kindly agreed to spend some time speaking with our Content Manager, Simon about her experience so far on the Island Innovation Ambassador Program, the upcoming Virtual Island Summit 2021 and other island related topics.
➡️ Gillian was born and raised in the UK but emigrated to the USA at the age of 21 and now lives on the Gulf coast of Florida. She recently started her own company, Dancing Waters Consulting, LLC. The name references her twin passions of Water Resources Management and teaching dances of the Anglo-Celtic Tradition.
️ The Virtual Island Summit 2021 will be held from 6th-12th September and you can register for free here: https://islandinnovation.co/virtual-island-summit-2021
This occasional newsletter highlights events and stories about innovation in sustainable development for rural, remote and island regions. We want to change the discourse to demonstrate how islandness can be a driver for innovation.
