Attendees will "discuss opportunities" around homegrown talent and hear from clubs who have "optimised their elite talent development model".

The forum will also explore ways to improve prospects for Scottish talent and increase club revenue streams.

The summit will be hosted by SFA chief executive Ian Maxwell and chief football officer Craig Mulholland.
