Daniel Rubin, Founder of Dune Group
We are delighted to announce that Daniel Rubin Founder and Chairman of The Dune Group will be joining us as a keynote speaker at the Kent Business Show 2027.
Starting Dune in 1992 with a simple idea – "to create an affordable luxury footwear and accessories brand" – Daniel has gone on to build an internationally recognised business with products sold in over 200 stores across more than 30 countries.
This is a rare opportunity to hear first-hand from someone who has built a global brand from the ground up. Daniel will share the highs, the challenges and the lessons learned over more than 30 years in business. His story is one of determination, resilience and spotting opportunities where others see obstacles.
Whether you're running a start-up, a growing business or an established company, Daniel's journey is packed with insights and experiences that every business owner can relate to.
Daniel is also the author of Sole Survivor.
"A thoroughly entertaining read and valuable insight into building a business and how hard work and passion can achieve amazing results."
