I was delighted to address the inaugural EDP Future 50 group of 'companies & individuals to watch' at the stylish, modern Open Centre in Norwich yesterday, courtesy EDP business editor, Paul Hill and EEDA Chairman, Richard Ellis.
The EDP Future 50 highlights fifty growing, successful 'momentum creating' individuals and companies, demonstrating that even in the depths of the world's recession, there is still room to grow if you've founded a great company, be it product or service based.
"From small acorns, do great oaks grow" is a very relevant phrase, the companies featured in the supplement represent in many ways the future of the East Anglian region, and I was delighted that my address was really appreciated by many individuals, as expressed in their tweets, blog posts and comments on Linked In.
I was also delighted that a good number of the audience had read my book, and enjoyed shaving with King of Shaves and our Azor am really looking forward to growing King of Shaves in the future, and delivering on my promise that it will be "A billion dollar brand in my lifetime".
Especial thanks to Paul.
