An evening with Kevin McCabe
Thursday 17 February
Pennine Theatre, Sheffield Hallam University, City Campus
6 for 6:30pm
Dubbed the sixth most powerful man in Yorkshire, Kevin McCabe has been at the forefront of sport in the region since 2008, when he became Chairman of Sheffield United football club.
The native Sheffielder and successful businessman will shed light on a colourful career that includes high court battles, multi million pound business deals and ownership of a Chinese football club.
As well as his high profile football role, McCabe is the founder and owner of one of the UK’s leading property development, investment and leisure companies, Scarborough Group International, which has a property portfolio of over £1 billion. He will share the secrets of his business success, including his rise from quantity surveyor to multi-millionaire international property magnate.
Get a unique insight into life at a top UK football club, and how the backroom business decisions affect the performance on the pitch, as well as some tips for success from one of the UK's leading businessmen.
Places are free but must be booked in advance.
I wonder if he'll want to answer questions from disgruntled Blades because I suspect this even could be hijacked by Unitedites wanting answers. Kevin "can you tell me why you spend most of the year in Brussels? Could you be classed as a tax avoider?"
