Directorbank Northern Private Equity Event – Wed 20th May: Over 50 guests gathered in the Granary Lounge at Leeds’ DoubleTree Hilton to network with a high calibre mix of board level directors from the North and private equity investors with interests in the region.
The evening was a great success as guests discussed regional developments, shared experiences and interests, and talked though future plans over wine and delicious canapés.
George Heppenstall, Directorbank’s Head of the Northern region, welcomed guests with a light-hearted speech that outlined key developments at Directorbank as well as private equity activity across the region.
Our thanks go to our event sponsor, Irwin Mitchell, and their team of senior Corporate Practice representatives who supported us throughout the evening – Chris Rawstron, National Head of Corporate; Paul Johnson, Head of Corporate Leeds; and Andrea Cropley, Head of Corporate Sheffield.
