Good evening everyone.

I am delighted to be your host for the Barclays Entrepreneur of the Year awards.

Tonight is about celebrating the bold visionaries, the innovative thinkers and brilliant entrepreneurs.

When you're an entrepreneur and a founder, you're never really off but it's finding times that you're either in that space of work or you're with family.

It's trying to really engineer my work around my life rather than my life around my work.

I'm going to borrow that one, I like that.

I don’t think a lot of people realise just how much support and passion there is for us to succeed in doing what we do.

We've got a small startup and we're trying to tackle a really big problem.

So we need big friends, and we need support from all sorts of different places.

And so this is just great publicity.

Just to be associated with Barclays just at the minute, it's just phenomenal.

The people in Barclays have just been so supportive.

I think moving forward, the testament that this award brings us will be absolutely vital when speaking to stakeholders, investors.

It really gives that validation in terms of what we're trying to achieve for patients.

I think any kind of recognition like this just adds credibility to what we're doing, and it shows that people care about it as well.

It just lifts me and my team up to receive this sort of appreciation of what we do and it just spurs us to keep going and hopefully, loads of PR so the whole world hears about what we're trying to do to help people, help people.
