Cascaid’s Alan Clayton will kick-start Wednesday’s sessions with his Reasons to 
get out of Bed plenary. Personal development expert Jack Black will deliver Thursday’s
keynote speech.

The conference will end with Tony Elischer delivering his “Nae Limits” plenary. 
It will “offer original directions on creativity and strategy in fundraising”, according
to the Institute.

Conference Chair Gordon Michie said: “This year’s conference aims to lift frontiers
and let us all think beyond our usual limits to the increasingly globalised range
of markets and techniques that we can all use. It is entirely fitting that this 
theme of challenging frontiers is reflected a world-class line up of speakers. “

The conference takes place at the Crowne Plaza Hotel, Glasgow, from 31 October to
2 November 2006.
