Have you always wanted to run your own business? What were some of your
previous jobs / companies?
I have always run my own
companies since 17 years old. The
latest companies are publicly
held so it may be the first business
that isn’t strictly mine. But it
still feels like it’s ‘mine,’ in as much
as I feel passionate about their
development, to the exclusion of
all else.
Have you got any qualifications? Please tell us about yourself
academically?
No qualifications. I left school
at 17 to start one of the
UK’s first computer game companies.
