“The fact that almost one-in-eight young people aged 16 to 24 is not in education, employment or training (NEET) represents an unacceptable level of wasted time, talent, potential and fulfilment for young people, their communities and the economy,” warns James Reed CBE.

Reed's report, 'The missing generation 2026', explores the policy changes and employer initiatives that could stop a generation of young people slipping through the cracks.

Most founders make one critical mistake when planning their exit.

Guy Singh-Watson didn't.

After growing Riverford Organic Farmers from three acres and a borrowed tractor into a £120m business, he found a way to cash out without selling to private equity or a trade buyer.

In this episode of all about business with James Reed, Guy reveals:

✅ Why he sold shares to employees instead

✅ The costly £2m mistake Riverford nearly made

✅ Why no customer should ever hold too much power

✅ The leadership lesson that's had the biggest impact on his business

A fascinating conversation on ownership, succession and building a company that can outlive its founder.

Every market has inefficiencies.

The question is whether you'll identify them first, or watch someone else build a business around solving them.

In the latest episode of all about business, Ross Crane, Co-Founder of Subdial, shares how data, transparency, and a willingness to challenge industry norms helped build a multi-million-pound business.

What makes this conversation particularly interesting is Ross's honesty about the setbacks. He discusses walking away from an early venture, returning unused investment to backers, and the lessons that ultimately paved the way for future success.

You'll also hear practical insights on:
🔍 Spotting market gaps before competitors do
📊 Using real-time data to improve decision-making
🚀 Accelerating sales without sacrificing trust
💡 Building a strong culture through the right hires
📉 Managing through economic uncertainty

An insightful listen for people looking to build smarter, more resilient organisations.
