Ambition drives the business leaders of today and the stars of tomorrow

Our Top 50 Most Ambitious Business Leaders programme shines a light on the stars leading the UK’s mid-sized firms, and the sheer volume of nominations this year was a testament to the health of this segment of the market.

Today we hear from the founder of an anatomical model company that’s changing the way our surgeons learn, an Olympic Gold medallist who brings sports psychology into the world of business, to those individuals transforming industries with technological innovation and new thinking.

It’s this kind of variety that makes the UK economy so vibrant and is exactly why we’re world leaders in so many sectors. All this is down to the people driving these businesses forward.

Our ‘Ones to Watch’ category also showcases the dynamic and ambitious leaders behind tomorrow’s mid-sized firms. These business leaders have built extraordinary brands and are punching way above their weight in the growth and export stakes.
