Designing single board and modular computers since 2012, Raspberry Pi is a genuine UK success story and the biggest – and in our eyes, the most exciting – listing on the London Stock Exchange this year.Eben discusses building a UK technology trailblazer with such a clear mission at its heart; the role of technology in driving social change, and much more.

Our latest guest is Anne Glover CBE, CEO of one of the most influential Venture Capital firms in technology. Anne’s had an incredible career, with the last three decades spend spotting, funding and growing genuinely game changing tech start-ups. We cover everything from her transatlantic journey from a Materials Science degree to her storied tenure at the helm of Amadeus Capital Partners; the importance of failure; and why strong brand values – and living them – is crucial as companies scale. It’s a fascinating listen.
