Business Without BS Why I’d Rather Do Business in China Than Britain
EP 391 - This week we are joined by Toby Burns, immersive events pioneer and the man behind Silent Disco.
He has some quite spicy things to say about how the UK treats entrepreneurship and flags an innovation that he would love to see the UK copy from China.
Yep, we should copy China.
You’ll have to listen in to find out how and why. But you will also get some real nuggets of business wisdom (in handy catch phrases). Such as “innovate or evaporate”, “diversify or die”.
Most importantly, if you want to create continued success you need to create a great customer experience at every touchpoint.
Let us know what you think in the comments.
