History
Founded by our Chief Executive, Gordon MacIntyre-Kemp and six SME business owners in May 2011, Business for Scotland has become one of Scotland's most influential business networks.
Business for Scotland is an agenda setting, independent and political party neutral business network and business policy think tank.
In 2014 Business for Scotland went from a standing start to being the best funded, supported, resourced and most effective registered group during the independence campaign. Our membership, our Board, staff and all local organisers are proud of the work they did and our contribution to the Yes surge from around the mid twenties to 45%.
Business for Scotland also founded Scotland’s largest, most active and inclusive independence campaigning organisation, Believe in Scotland. You can find out more about the work Believe in Scotland does here.
