NCBC Event Details
Mark Goldby DL

Mark’s business career spans 4 decades: initially with corporate giants GPT & Siemens and then until 2019 as co-founder & owner of SMS Electronics – a successful, Nottinghamshire-based company & winner of the prestigious Kings Award for Enterprise.
Life after SMS Electronics has seen Mark champion and give back to both the business sector and local communities via a number of non-executive, advisory board and charitable trustee roles. These commitments sit alongside Mark chairing the East Midlands Manufacturing Networks, which are business-led, peer to peer groups, and his position on the Regional Advisory Board for the largest manufacturing trade body in the UK (Make UK) ensures Mark’s passion for manufacturing remains connected and relevant.
Mark was commissioned as a Deputy Lieutenant for Nottinghamshire in 2016 recognising his achievements in business, the charitable sector and his community. Mark leads on the promotion of the Kings Award for Enterprise within the County and is a strong advocate of inclusivity and rural affairs.
Mark also champions The King's Award for Enterprise, which is the most prestigious award any UK business can receive - bar none! His Majesty has renewed and acknowledged the importance of these awards that were established under the late Queen Elizabeth II and you have an opportunity to hear all about the awards directly from a royal representative. You will learn more about the awards, the prize, the recognition, the process and the guidance available for applicants
