Hakim to speak at iDay 20th anniversary conference

Independents Day (iDay) has announced that Imran Hakim will return to its stage to reflect on the past two decades for the independent sector.

Hakim, CEO at Hakim Group, shared: ‘iDay has always been a fantastic platform for sharing ideas, sparking innovation, and championing independent optometry, and I’m looking forward to being part of the conversation once again.’

iDay organiser Nick Atkins explained that they would be having a ‘fireside chat’ about Hakim’s journey since Dragons Den and that he would ask him to do some ‘crystal ball gazing’ as to what the future held for independent practice.

This year will be a two-day conference and exhibition, taking place on June 29-30 at the national motorcycle museum in Birmingham.
