Hello, October! And what better way to start the month than with a conversation about cheese, and much, much more?!?

We’re delighted to welcome Gillian Hall, third-generation cheesemaker and owner of Butlers Farmhouse Cheeses, to Lancaster University Management School for an evening exploring Resilience, Legacy and Leadership.

📅 Thursday 15 October | 6pm–7.30pm
📍 Lancaster University Management School
🎟️ Free to attend (registration required)

Join us as Gill shares the story of Butlers Farmhouse Cheeses, from its family roots and passion for cheese to navigating adversity, supporting people through uncertainty and continuing to evolve for the next generation.

For four generations, the Hall family has built Butlers Farmhouse Cheeses around two things: family and cheese.

From classic Lancashire recipes to specialist soft and blue cheeses, cheese is more than a product for the Hall family, it’s a passion. And their family values are the bedrock of the business.

In 2023, that legacy faced one of its greatest challenges when a devastating fire destroyed part of the dairy operation. For Gill and her team, it became a defining moment, testing leadership, resilience and the strength of those family values.

An honest conversation about family business, resilience, leadership, legacy and finding opportunity in adversity.

We’re proud to have Gill as part of our Entrepreneurs in Residence community and can’t wait to welcome her to LUMS.

On Friday, we hosted the first Cyber Leadership Forum, bringing together senior leaders, practitioners, policymakers, researchers, educators, Cyber Executive MBA participants and alumni to explore what responsible leadership looks like in an increasingly digital world.

The forum focused on Trust, Governance and Strategic Responsibility, with thoughtful discussion around cyber and digital risk, accountability, governance, culture, ethics and trust.

A huge thank you to Avril Palmer-Fye for organising such a fantastic first event and creating a space for open, cross-sector conversations about some of the complex challenges facing organisations today.

This is the beginning of an exciting new community, with future plans including practitioner communities of practice, research partnerships, cross-sector roundtables, executive education and thought leadership.

We look forward to seeing how the Cyber Leadership Forum develops and the conversations and collaborations it will generate.

With a new term approaching, the Business Briefing sessions are back.

This time, we’re looking at a topic that’s critical when buying, selling or growing a business: Due Diligence.

What does good due diligence actually look like? What’s enough, what’s too little, and what should you expect when the process gets underway?

This practical briefing will explore how due diligence can help protect value and reduce risk, as well as how sellers can prepare in advance for a smoother, more efficient transaction.

The Business Briefing series is now well established, bringing together local businesses, academics and students for practical conversations around starting, growing and scaling a business. All are welcome.

The series is a collaboration between Brabners, a leading UK law firm, and Lancaster University Management School’s Entrepreneurs in Residence, bringing together legal expertise and entrepreneurial insight.

📅 Tuesday 13 October
⏰ 8:00 - 8:30am refreshments and networking
8:30 - 9:30am briefing and Q&A
📍 Lancaster University Management School
🎟️ Free to attend, registration required

Whether you're a business owner thinking about growth, investment or exit, or simply interested in understanding more about the process, this is one to have in the diary.
