Salon and spa owners can engage in focused discussions on business growth and AI integration at the Leeds Regional Growth Summit on 8 June 2026. The event will feature expert-led roundtables designed to tackle current industry challenges.
These sessions offer a chance to step away from the main exhibition floor for interactive conversations on topics like retail, rebooking, team leadership, and overall growth strategy. The aim is to foster an environment where practical ideas and shared experiences can directly improve business outcomes.
One roundtable, "AI In The Salon: Practical Strategies To Support You And Your Team," will be led by Kerri-Ann Bruce, a salon owner and business mentor with over 18 years of industry experience. Bruce previously scaled and sold a multi-six-figure salon brand and now guides owners in efficient operations and sustainable growth.
Marnie Wills, an AI Strategist, will host "Live AI Clinic: Build Your AI Co-Workers." Wills specialises in implementing practical AI solutions for businesses, helping them reduce overwhelm and streamline operations. Her focus is on building team confidence with technology.
Both roundtables are free to attend but require advance booking due to limited spaces. The wider Leeds Regional Growth Summit takes place on the same date at the Royal Armouries Museum, featuring exhibitors and main stage sessions with industry leaders.
