Businesses that were created five years ago faced a different set of challenges than the challenges they would have faced today. They also would have dealt with a market place which looks very different than today. That's not to say it's easier or harder today. It's just different. I think most people would be surprised… Continue reading What You’re Not Told

Flattening The Bell Curve
The Bell Curve This is a bell curve and is what the world used to look like. People used to watch the same movies and TV shows as one another, listen to the same songs on the radio as one another and even talk about the same topics as one another. Then the Internet happened.… Continue reading Flattening The Bell Curve
Should You Start A Business?
In my experience most people start a business to become rich. However, during the course of starting a business most founders realise a deeper meaning and purpose in themselves. Most of the time people who start a business realise that they actually started a business not just for money, but because they had a yearning… Continue reading Should You Start A Business?
Welcome To Entrepreneurship
Everyone is one Google search away from getting the information that they need, to start doing work that matters. What is unfortunate though, is that lot of information isn't a Google search away. There's a lot of stuff in business that people don't write or talk about. When I meet other entrepreneurs, we talk about… Continue reading Welcome To Entrepreneurship
Which Bit Matters?
I just left the Clinical Entrepreneur Pit Stop Event, ran by NHS Innovation (I'll do a full write up soon!), but it was incredibly useful getting feedback from seasoned entrepreneurs and pioneers as usual.

NHS Startup Part XV – “It’s Up To Us Now.”

I think we've really nailed what we intended to do. As… Continue reading NHS Startup Part XV – “It’s Up To Us Now.”
Don’t Steal My Idea!
Should you tell anyone about your startup idea? Some people like to keep things under wraps, whereas others talk about their ideas from day one. I know super successful entrepreneurs on both sides of this fence. But, I believe that if you are a first time entrepreneur it's best to get all your ideas out… Continue reading Don’t Steal My Idea!
Let’s Make It A Date

Or are they just another one of those people who just like to talk about "someday". Here's a quick tip; Set a date. Do you want to start something? Want to make sure someone else… Continue reading Let’s Make It A Date
Self Development
When I was 13 I started my first band. From the age of 10 I was really into rock, heavy metal and any other guitarcentric genre of music. One of the teachers at my school heard one of our songs and asked what type of music we were playing. I responded; "We play neo-classical, speed,… Continue reading Self Development
NHS Startup Part XI – Cultivating Criticism
I am receiving more and more feedback about my service. Both from patients and the NHS staff using my service. Today was the first time that I had the full backing of the NHS employees using my service. Before today, I have just felt like a crazy outsider trying to do something ridiculous. Now that there is momentum… Continue reading NHS Startup Part XI – Cultivating Criticism
