CEO + Founder, Metail.

I met Tom at an entrepreneur roundtable hosted at Runway East in Shoreditch London a few years ago. Turns out we have a fair bit in common given we went to the same school in London and also studied at Cambridge University. We're also both of mixed heritage: Tom is a half-Norwegian half-Nigerian combo to my half-Swiss half-Kenyan-Indian background.

I've noticed Tom put up some interesting posts on LinkedIn since the start of the Black Lives Matter protests and thought I would invite him onto the show to dig a little deeper. We cover:

What is driving the huge protests behind the BLM movement and why are people taking it more seriously than ever before.
Why Tom is writing to our old school to get involved in improving how history is taught to adolescents, especially when it comes to black history and Britain's colonial past.
The great work Tom is doing to mentor young black entrepreneurs and help them access funding they often are not able to reach.
How Tom worked hard in his own start-up to build a fair and inclusive environment before selling the business last year. We also touch on how Tom is helping promote awareness of the ethnicity pay-gap.

I hope it sparks some good thoughts.
