James Ledbetter is editor-in-chief of American business magazine Inc. Taking the reins in 2014, he oversees a global multimedia business covering print, digital, video, custom publishing and live events with a monthly online audience of 20 million and a print circulation of 700,000. Their \u2018Inc 5000\u2019 list is the definitive ranking of America\u2019s fastest-growing, privately held companies. In this in-depth interview, he takes us through the magazine\u2019s 40-year history from the three-piece suits of the 70s to the diversity of today\u2019s socially-conscious entrepreneurs, discusses how the \u201crobot revolution\u201d isn\u2019t shaping up to be the crisis that many predicted it to be, and argues that it\u2019s easier to start a business in Singapore than it is in the US.
