Karl Lumsden, Agency Lead at Google, will be the main speaker at next week’s, fully booked, bizmentors® Seminars which is taking place in the Clayton Hotel, Ballybrit.
His address at the event on on Tuesday September 11 at 7.30am will focus on Google supports available to start-ups and SMEs along with an overview of digital trends. Speaking ahead of the seminar, Mr Lumsden highlighted the growing importance of video.
