Have you got an idea for your business that you’d like to develop? Join us for a workshop on how to develop your ideas into reality.

By the end of the day you’ll have a good understanding of the following:

Realities of growth – a perspective on growth, and the alternative ways to approach a growth objective
Sources of ideas – the inspiration for ideas, and the chance to apply this to your business
Prioritising ideas – what makes an idea good, and how to prioritise the best idea for your business
Developing your idea – finding the inspiration to build on and strengthen your idea
Finalise your idea – identify the strongest component of your idea, and how to take it forward

We often use photography and/or video footage at our events to promote Highlands and Islands Enterprise. If you don’t want your photo to be taken or to be filmed, please let the event organiser know in advance. You’ll find HIE’s full privacy statement online https://www.hie.co.uk/legal/privacypolicy/

An old castle, an enchanted forest, and a true story of love!…it could only be Beauty and the Beast! The Panto Company brings the beloved musical to life with Dame Dotty Potty, Loopy Louie, Gaston, Belle, and the Beast. As Belle is held captive in the castle, families will love finding out if she falls in love with the Beast before the spell finally consumes him. Will the Beast’s selfishness cost him the world he once knew and the hand of the beauty that has captured his heart?

So, get ready for Panto at Macdonald Aviemore Resort again as we invite you to sing along and shout out. Be prepared for lots of laughter, stunning costumes, music, and plenty of magic. It’s a delight for the entire family.
