At the SEMTSF 24, together we’ll build bridges of understanding between communities, shatter the barriers that hinder opportunity, and ignite a spark of innovation across Scotland.

The goal of SEMTSF 24 is to unlock the full potential of Scotland’s ethnic minority talent pool. Through a series of dynamic events, workshops, and discussions, SEMTSF 24 will empower individuals, foster collaboration, and equip attendees with the tools they need to thrive.

This isn’t just about creating opportunities for talented individuals alone. It’s about building a more prosperous and inclusive Scotland for everyone. By attracting, retaining, and empowering ethnic minority talent, we can unlock a wealth of fresh ideas, diverse perspectives, and a stronger workforce that benefits the entire nation.
