The Vision
The focus of Global Innovators Ltd is the innovator as a person rather than just the innovation itself. Serial entrepreneurs are the life-blood of the future global economy. They invent new processes, create new business models and can transform entire industries. Serial entrepreneurs are constantly developing new ideas, concepts, products and services. Serial entrepreneurs work best when they have highly talented people around them, in teams which can translate their innovations into commercial reality, helping them create a series of highly successful businesses, often working towards sale or joint venture or some other exit.
Global Innovators Ltd aim is usually to accelerate growth towards exit. The company provides strategic input, mentoring, coaching and leadership insight, as well as access to specialist advice from a community of experts - on issues ranging from competitor analysis to cash flow forecasting, branding and online marketing, legal and accounting issues or effective fund-raising and so on. The model is to partner with clients / entrepreneurs in long term relationships.
