Carlyle Conversation – Mark Kent, Scotch Whisky Association

As the Carlyle Conversations interview series continues, with key learns from leaders across the UK, it was a pleasure to sit down with Mark Kent, CEO of Scotch Whisky Association.

After a very successful career as an Ambassador and Diplomat, Mark joined SWA nearly three years ago and kindly shared some great insight into the importance of the sector in Scotland and the UK, how it has remained so resilient and the potential impact of the upcoming budget. 

And as has become tradition, he had some brilliant answers to our 'quick fire questions'.

Thanks again for taking part Mark, it's easy to see why the industry holds SWA and the work that you do in such high regard.
