Also on the show is Rob Lewis, my partner at Edenic Group and founder of Digital health company, 54 Degrees North.

Together we discuss the importance of businesses embracing digital technology and how the growth in digital has significantly affected all industry sectors. We talk about the Barclays eagle labs initiative to support new digital startups and why they have rolled out the Barclays Eagle Labs network across the UK.

We also chat about the Barclays Digital Eagles project, which supports their everyday customers in understanding digital technology, and discuss how business leaders should embrace the technology that they are already using in their everyday lives.

As always, we talk about the life of an entrepreneur and pros and cons of running your own company, and how legacy businesses should embrace the talent and ambition of young startups and incubators in their region. Our home city of Hull, UK is high on the agenda, as we highlight what we are doing as a city to drive innovation.
