Moderated by Dr Miranda Lewis from Bayes Business School Academic; Ellie Kelly, owner of Studfast, Nikki Newcombe owner of Bliss of London and Mark Huxley, Master of the Worshipful Company of Entrepreneurs presented their journeys of founding and managing their businesses, whilst sharing lessons they’ve learnt in the commercial world.
