Which are the companies that will rewrite the rules and help rebuild the economy in 2020 and beyond? The Spectator and Julius Baer have come together once again to celebrate creative entrepreneurship across the UK. On this podcast, The Spectator's business columnist Martin Vander Weyer talks to a panel of high profile judges from the business world about the finalists in Scotland and Northern Ireland - from reprogramming people's relationship with alcohol to an 'Uber for careworkers'.
Joining him on the judging panel were Irene McAleese, co-founder and chief strategy officer of See.Sense, the Northern Ireland-based ‘smart bike lights’ and road-use data analysis venture that was our regional winner in 2018; Ian Ritchie CBE, a leading figure in Scottish tech circles, having been involved as an investor or director in more than 40 start-up businesses; and Gordon Scott is a regional team head at Julius Baer, based in its Edinburgh office.
