BSN City Group/Linklaters – Inspired to Succeed: Being a change maker with Gina Miller – 9 October 2019

Inspired to Succeed – Black History Month 

October is Black History Month. To mark the occasion, the Black Solicitors Network (City Branch) and Linklaters are delighted to invite you to an evening event entitled “Inspired to Succeed: Being a change maker”. 

Guest speaker: Gina Miller

Bloomberg described Gina Miller as an “Establishment Wrecking Ball” but she states that her drive for transparency, scrutiny and integrity is about reform, not wrecking. Her expertise and areas of work cover investments, charities, democracy and political processes; as well as social justice. 

Post the financial crisis, Gina and her husband Alan founded SCM Direct as a modern digital wealth manager centred on transparency, low cost and putting clients first. 

In 2012, Gina co-launched the True and Fair Campaign, calling for an end to dubious practices in the investment and pension industry. Gina’s campaigning resulted in contributions to three EU Directives. 

In 2016, Gina successfully challenged the UK Government over its authority to implement Brexit, winning in both the High Court and Supreme Court in what is hailed as the most important British constitutional case since the 1700s. 

At the end of August 2018, Gina published her first book “Rise: Life Lessons in Speaking Out, Standing Tall and Leading the Way”. 

We hope that you can join us for what promises to be an inspiring and fascinating discussion where Gina will share her experiences as a business leader, campaigner and change maker.
