Oscar winners. Ex-cabbies. An army captain. A behavioural psychologist. The Future Fifty’s entrepreneurs are an extraordinary group.

The data speaks for itself – four IPOs on London’s stock markets; 13 rounds of financing with a combined total of £260m – some of them amongst the largest in Europe; net revenue in many instances more than doubling within a year; and well over 2,000 new hires in the last 10 months.
