KEY TAKEAWAYS

• We can always disrupt a market, because the incumbents in any space generally tend to be rooted in the past. There are always opportunities for innovation.
• The entrepreneurial spirit must always be heeded as it tries to steer us through business. Follow your instincts, or you may reach the end of your career with regrets.
• True innovation comes from proving that an idea germinated at a table surrounded by thinkers can precipitate change in an industry.
• Partnering with those who wish to take the brand to the next level can often provide hitherto unexplored levels of innovation and growth. Always look for the positives in what others can bring.

BEST MOMENTS

'The opportunities that interest me the most are the ones that involve disrupting a big market with a more sustainable version of the future'

'We have to build something that can take on these juggernauts'

'There is a healthy tension between strategy and execution'

'A lot of brand screw it up, and we thought "We don't want to make that mistake"'
