Fascinating talk by entrepreneur Richard Bridgwood

We were delighted to welcome Cambridge-based, serial entrepreneur and business coach Richard Bridgwood to the School, to give a talk to students and a few parents about his career and his tips about becoming an entrepreneur.

Richard gave a lot of very useful tips and life lessons – including a brief accounting lesson – which will help to inspire our girls to start thinking about the possibility of starting their own business one day. One important message was to base your business around your passions and the lifestyle you want, as you only live once!

Another lesson to be learned was that good manners go a long way in business – wise words indeed! The girls really enjoyed the talk, and there were questions flying back and forth at the Q & A afterwards. It was an extremely interesting and valuable opportunity for our students to learn from a very successful local businessman, and we really appreciate Richard taking the time to talk to us and share his knowledge and wisdom.
