About this episode
Join us as we chat with Justin Esgar about the ACEs Conference, an event designed to help MSPs (Managed Service Providers) grow their businesses with a focus beyond just technological skills. Justin shares his journey in founding the conference, designed originally for Apple consultants but open to all. He talks about the unique business-oriented aspects of the conference, the importance of non-technical skills, and the vibrant community it nurtures. Additionally, he discusses the scholarship in honour of his late father and hints at future plans for geographical expansion. The conversation also touches on some lighter notes, such as Justin's potential guest-hosting role and his enthusiasm for British television. 00:00 Introduction and Welcoming Justin 00:19 Practicing the Podcast Introduction 01:20 Discussing the ACEs Conference 04:13 The Unique Focus of ACEs Conference 04:59 History and Evolution of ACEs Conference 06:25 Business Growth and Success Stories 11:06 Employee Development and Training 16:59 Challenges and Differences in Conference Attendance 23:02 Honouring a Legacy: The Edward Esgar Scholarship 24:37 Final Thoughts and Farewell
