    May 23, 2019

    Does the Jamie’s Italian chain have only itself to blame for its demise? Patrick Clover, founder and chief executive of BLACKBX, says YES.

  • After Brexit, will Britain remain a land of opportunity? Apprentice star Mark Wright shares his views on startups and the economy

    April 9, 2019

    Winning a reality TV show isn’t normally considered a recipe for success. The stars of such programmes usually end up plastered across the tabloids, followed by performing in a Christmas pantomime somewhere in rural England. But the BBC’s The Apprentice is an altogether different beast. With the backing of business mogul Lord Alan Sugar, the [...]

    April 8, 2019

    After interviewing Eric Partaker, the co-founder of burrito chain Chilango, he says I should try the food at his elaborately decorated restaurant on Cannon Street.

  • Invest in property with your IFISA

    March 20, 2019

    Throughout history, wealth has always been accumulated and preserved by investing in the property sector. Over the years we have seen property prices reach all-time highs and even outperformed the stock market. The super-rich however don’t really “do” buy-to-let investments.

  • DEBATE: Could France overtake Britain for tech investment?

    March 18, 2019

    Could France overtake Britain for tech investment? Kat Borlongan, director of the French Tech Mission, says YES. There are number of misconceptions around doing business in France. A language barrier and extensive bureaucracy have perhaps deterred investors from funding some of the best tech startups, specialising in everything from artificial intelligence to smart cities. But these [...]

  • Serious Pig founder George Rice wants to pair craft beer with better snacks in British pubs

    March 4, 2019
