The motion

That the Parliament recognises Kim Burgess for her developing business, AllARMED, which offers an exciting, novel personal protection approach for anyone who may feel vulnerable in public; acknowledges innovative approaches such as AllARMED, with what it understands to be a highly visible deterrent that has the potential to revolutionise personal safety and ensure that the most vulnerable groups in society feel safe and confident; understands that Scottish EDGE awarded an amount of £10,000 for Kim to develop a prototype device; further understands that Scottish EDGE has made 635 awards totalling £26.5million to Scottish businesses since its conception; celebrates this annual competition, which supports up-and-coming, innovative, high-growth potential, entrepreneurial talent, and wishes Kim and AllARMED well for its launch.
