The Small Business Sessions (S5E12): The entrepreneur aiming to help 10 million new business founders
Posted: Wed 1st Sep 2021
We've reached the end of series five of the Small Business Sessions, Enterprise Nation's podcast sponsored by Starling Bank.
Joining us for the final episode is the brilliant serial entrepreneur Simon Squibb, who has made it his mission to help 10 million people start and grow a business through The Purposeful Project.
Simon's vision for supporting so many new entrepreneurs is driven by his personal experiences. He left school at 15 and was kicked out of home by his mum, but went on to start 19 companies and invest in over 60 start-ups. He also sold his branding and digital agency, Fluid, to PwC.
Here, Simon joins journalist Dan Martin to share insights from his incredible entrepreneurial adventures.
