I am retired, married, a university graduate, and live on the south coast of England. My my last business was sold n 2005. That business was the third that I established, built up and sold during the last 25 years. Although two of my previous businesses were in the field of travel and the other was in retail, I have acted as a consultant to several other businesses in such diverse fields as training, purchasing and IT . My hands-on experience in all aspects of running and managing very successful businesses sometimes employing 200 people, I hope would be attractive to entrepreneurs who would value the benefit of my experience and advice but who would not want the interference of a hands-on , day-to-day investor. I am an individual investor who would like to help both fledgeling and established companies become more successful, which I am confident would be to the mutual financial benefit of both parties.
