A 350-year journey into science, conservation and education
In this Client Spotlight episode, Ian Brown, Head of Finance, Risk and Governance at Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh (RBGE), reflects on the organisation’s 350 year journey – from its origins as a medicinal physic garden to a globally respected centre for science, conservation and education.
Ian discusses with Alan Glen, Partner at our Edinburgh office, how the gardens have evolved across multiple sites in Scotland, balancing heritage with purpose while supporting research, learning and public engagement. The conversation also explores current priorities, including climate change research, visitor experience and funding challenges.
