Digby Jones, Director General of the CBI, will deliver this year鈥檚 Annual 海角直播 Business School lecture at the University of 海角直播 on Wednesday 30 October, in the University鈥檚 Innovation & Virtual Reality Centre Lecture Theatre, from 7pm-8pm.

Professor John Wilson, Director of 海角直播 Business School, said: 鈥淚 am extremely pleased that we have been able to attract such a prestigious speaker as Digby Jones to the University. The lecture will also provide an opportunity for business people to network and hopefully benefit from this regional event. It鈥檚 a further example of how 海角直播 Business School is reaching out to the business community.鈥� Entertainment before the lecture will be provided at 5.30pm on the Second Floor, Clarendon Building, by a jazz quintet, the Noel Dennis Band.

By day Noel Dennis lectures in Marketing with 海角直播 Business School, and at night plays trumpet and flugelhorn with the band.

Noel, 23, from Ingleby Barwick, graduated from the University in 1999 with a First Class degree in Marketing and now works alongside his former lecturers. The group is a real family affair; Noel plays alongside his father and younger brother Adam, 19, who enrolled at the Guildhall School of Music this autumn. The group have played in a range of venues, including regular stints at Middlesbrough鈥檚 Dickens Inn, the Stockton International Riverside Festival and Disneyland Paris.

Noel said: 鈥満=侵辈� Business School is a fantastic team to be part of. It鈥檚 nice to be involved in the Digby Jones lecture, where we鈥檒l be playing a short set of post-bop jazz beforehand.鈥�
