Simon Squibb is an entrepreneur and investor focused on helping people build meaningful businesses. He's best known for founding HelpBnk and for his Sunday Times bestselling book What's Your Dream?, which encourages people to start before they feel ready.
He's not your typical entrepreneur.
At 15 his father died and he found himself homeless. To survive, he started his first company — a gardening business. That experience woke up what Simon calls his "entrepreneurial muscle," and he's been building and investing in companies ever since.
Thirty years later, he's started over 19 companies and invested in 81+ start-ups (see some of them here). His last business was Fluid, an agency in Hong Kong, which he sold to PwC for more money than he'll ever need.
Now he's on a mission to help 10 million people kickstart their businesses and follow their dreams. Over the last few years, Simon has amassed 22+ million followers through his #GiveWithoutTake movement and inspirational street interviews.
He's been featured in dozens of publications — BBC, Sunday Times, Entrepreneur, TechRadar, and many more.
