@DeborahMeaden Well known gf flour in the gf world, especially in eu, but no need for a drink with it. If they got the £2m, I’d hire them to fundraise for a living!
Just seen @JamiroquaiHQ at the O2 and the band was amazing as ever. Jay has deffo got his mojo back! Watched them in Barcelona a month ago and the crowd was very different

@dieworkwear My business is leading the Digital Product Passport in the EU/UK, this will be practically legislation on all garments in 2027, Loake shoes are already carrying our DPPs showing how their shoes are hand crafted and touched by over 80 hands per shoe..
Face to face salespeople will be the new coders in 5 yrs, AI will do everything else but can’t build an f2f relationship - more and more brands are wanting f2f meets in order to build trust. IMHO anyway

Venture capital firms never take their own advice.
they tell founders that competition is for losers, but they sell an undifferentiated product that is insanely competitive with some of the smartest people in the world
they tell founders to have 1 CEO and they have 5 CEOs
they tell founders to grow fast and take dilution, but they rarely take dilution
they tell founders to go public, but they never go public
they tell founders to take low salaries and optimize on equity, but they take insanely high salaries
they tell founders to keep expenses low so you can invest in the business, but they pay for private jets out of their fund
they tell founders to leverage the company’s strengths and expand, but they keep doing the same exact thing year over year
they tell founders that board governance is key, but they have almost no oversight on their firm
they tell founders that acquisitions can be accretive, but they never acquire another business
they tell the founders that they don’t need new equity compensation after 4 years, but the VCs always give themself more or they stop working
Stripe's CEO never studied finance.
Instead, he reverse-engineered PayPal’s docs—and built a $95 BILLION company at 22.
How? A learning method so powerful, it's now taught in colleges.
