EP 101 - Gideon Hoffman: "Learn to keep your grip on ideas you believe in"

Meet the man who's part-responsible for setting up HMRC (for you
lovely non-UK listeners, that's Her Majesty's Revenue and
Customs) and was at the centre of what became a giant media
storm surrounding the Gambling Act with his emails debated at
Prime Minister's Questions.


Gideon Hoffman is a decorated businessman who works across media,
technology and finance. A trustee at the Royal National Institute
for Deaf People (Gideon lives with an impaired hearing condition)
and a lover of startups and growing businesses, Gideon is
passionate about challenging the status quo and pushing the
boundaries. With a past life as policy maker at HM Treasury and
now an avid Founder, Advisor and Trustee, Gideon is a man with a
wealth of stories to tell and advice to give.
