Kate Forbes, the former Deputy First Minister, has joined True Stories\u00a0\u2013 the new live events business launched earlier this year by True North Advisors.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ms Forbes, who chose not to seek re-election to the Scottish parliament in May, will host a programme of live conversations with a range of speakers. Her first will be with Sir Chris Hoy, taking place this Friday at Dundee\u2019s Caird Hall.\u00a0 <\/p>\n
Sir Chris is also speaking earlier that day at The Calling, a live event organised by former automative entrepreneur Peter Vardy in Glasgow.<\/p>\n
Ms Forbes said: \u201cThroughout my time in government, some of the conversations I valued most were those which brought together people with different experiences, perspectives and ideas.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cTrue Stories\u00a0has exciting plans to create more of those conversations, from major live events to intimate roundtables bringing together leaders from across business and public life.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is a real\u00a0privilege that my first event will be with Sir Chris Hoy. His achievements in sport speak for themselves, but the courage and resilience he has demonstrated beyond the velodrome have inspired people across the country. I am very much looking forward to our conversation in Dundee.\u201d<\/p>\n
True North managing partner\u00a0Geoff\u00a0Aberdein\u00a0said:\u00a0\u201cWe are so pleased that\u00a0Kate\u00a0has chosen to\u00a0come onboard to spearhead True Stories in her first role since leaving government.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cShe is one of the most engaging and respected figures in Scottish public life \u2013 thoughtful, quick-witted and endlessly curious about people, their stories and their ideas.\u201d<\/p>\n
