Closing keynote announced for Brighton Base Camp: Bananas
Lyn Goleby is someone who has had a pretty unusual career change. A former solicitor specialising in media law, she co-founded Picturehouse Cinemas in 1989.
After the company was sold to Cineworld, Lynn stayed to build three more cinemas on the Picturehouse model while working on the development of six more. She’s also behind the flagship Picturehouse Central, once an underperforming multiplex site in Piccadilly and now the sixth highest grossing cinema in London.
Today, Lyn is involved with a number of businesses including cinemas and a contemporary social bingo venue. She is Executive Chairman of Trafalgar Releasing, a company that distributes live events and arts programming to cinemas worldwide.
Lyn will talk about building a business by trying something different – and what it’s like when that “something different” is a widely-copied massive success. She’ll also discuss how she made the difficult decision to move on. And she’ll also talk about the present – having a business based on social gatherings during these troubled times – and what comes next.
Brighton Base Camp is a virtual event packed with inspiring speakers, great networking, and fascinating workshops that will change the way you think. Although you’ll be joining remotely, you’ll be part of something exciting, intriguing, and welcoming.
