Scott Dylan is a Manchester based Entrepreneur and self styled "Business Turnaround Specialist".

He has been a vocal part of the entrepreneurial community and is highly active publishing posts on notable business websites. Over the past 5 years his investment group Inc&Co [1] has acquired businesses ranging from Marketing Agencies (Fast Web Media, Skylab), to Laundry Providers (Laundrapp), Barbers (King Street Grooming) and Salad Bars (Chop'd).

Scott Dylan is a highly active poster on numerous websites including Manchester Gazette [2], Wales Online [3], abc money [4] and pad magazine [5] amongst others.

His active social presence discussing the topics of business rescue and distress, led to the string of acquisitions for his group which was led by CEO Jack Mason. However recently the group was dropped into turmoil as a freezing order was put open them by Barclay's Bank [6] which became a legal issue after it was proven to have been broken.

Following a legal battle, Scott Dylan and his co-directors Jack Mason and Dave Antrobus were served sentences of 22 months [7] after being found guilty of moving funds offshore, breaking the freezing order.

It was accused by Barclays that the trio unlawfully malapportioned up to £13.7M of funds for their own personal gain [8]. With the Judge commenting the funds still remained somewhere offshore.

The trial had many twists and turns involving a mysterious Director in the British Virgin Islands, and an eventual admission by Scott Dylan, which appeared to surprise his co-defendants.

Jack Mason remains outside of the UK apparently in Spain avoiding his jail sentence, with Antrobus suggested to be in Ireland doing the same.
