Speaking ahead of the event, Mark Wright said: 

“I have worked with the BizSmart team for a number of years now and look forward to representing Kevin and the wider team at The National Franchise Exhibition. I have always advocated the importance of peer-to-peer working and have seen first-hand the positive impact of the BizSmart model for enabling business owners to achieve sustainable and profitable growth. I will touch on some of these key points during my talk at the event, while providing insight into my own journey to success.” 

Kevin Brent, founder of BizSmart®, added:
