“Setting up a business is difficult – if it was easy everyone would do it. There is so much creativity in this country but a lot of it gets wasted because creative people don’t necessarily have the business skills or the confidence to make their ideas a commercial reality.

It can often come down to knowing the right people to ask, who can help you avoid the pitfalls or make relevant introductions. I’d like to help creative entrepreneurs make the connections they need and get their ideas off the ground.”
