- Are we destined to limp along, or can we turn the UK economy around? City AM Editor-in-Chief Christian May sits down with two successful entrepreneurs, Stephen Fitzpatrick and Brent Hoberman, to discuss the launch of Enterprise Britain.
This new movement aims to shift the national mindset from risk aversion towards a culture of entrepreneurship and shared prosperity. City AM dives deep into the "culture of resistance" facing business in the UK, the need for a government with an entrepreneurial mindset, and radical ideas like banning non-compete clauses to speed up the economy.
