Director at Business Leader, Oli Ballard comments: “The event was organised to provide our readers and those that we engage with a full analysis of the challenges facing the tech sector in the UK. We wanted to bring a panel together that covered each stage of the business lifecycle and it was rewarding to receive input from brands like Vodafone, Revolut and PensionBee. The event is timely, considering the Go:Tech Awards are around the corner.”
