Sage UK sponsors MADE festival in Sheffield

Newcastle-based business software specialist Sage is to be the headline sponsor at the 2014 MADE Festival, taking place in Sheffield on the 24th and 25th September.

The conference is aimed at early stage and growing businesses, as well as those people thinking about starting a business.

Attendees will hear from some of Britain’s most successful entrepreneurs, including Reggae Reggae Sauce founder Levi Roots, the lady behind Ultimo, Michelle Mone and SBTV founder Jamal Edwards.

The conference offers the perfect combination of advice and guidance from these leading entrepreneurs and local business success stories from Sheffield, Yorkshire and the North of England, including Sage.

As one of Britain’s biggest business success stories with more than 800k customers in the UK, many of which are small businesses, Sage is perfectly placed to provide insight on the challenges facing small business owners and how technology can help overcome them.

Alastair MacColl, chief executive of the BE Group, the delivery partner for MADE, said: “With this year’s conference set to be bigger than ever, we are delighted to have Sage as our headline sponsors. The Sage One Accounts and Payroll software is a smart piece of technology that is transforming how people set-up and run their business. Having the backing of a proven national powerhouse such as Sage is a confidence boost to anyone thinking of starting a business.”

Claire Carter, general manager of Sage One said: “With more people than ever thinking of starting a business, we need to help ensure entrepreneurs are equipped with the best tools, advice and guidance to succeed. That is why we are proud sponsors at this year’s MADE festival,”
