Edwin Green of the Business Archives Council asks ‘What is so special about London’s business archives?’, revealing the quality of opportunity that corporate archives in London can offer the researcher and practitioner.
Drawing on his wealth of experience in business archives, Edwin will share his knowledge of the histories and personalities involved. He will look at the challenges and opportunities relating to these unique resources and give an overview of what’s going on now in business archives.
