[read more] Duane Jackson tells his story of how he transformed from a 19 year old in trouble with the law to a multi award winning entrepreneur and founder of the UK’s most successful SaaS accountancy software firm, KashFlow
At the next EF seminar on 29 November 2011, Duane will share his experience of starting up his own company. He will address the key challenges faced, the steps he took to make the business a reality, and how he ultimately turned his start-up into a real-life success.
Duane’s experience of IT began at 14 when he decided to teach himself computer programming. He went on to work for the BBC and Reuters, but at the age of 19, Duane fell in with the wrong crowd and ended up in prison for two years.
Upon his release, Duane seized an opportunity and founded KashFlow in 2006 with support from The Prince’s Trust. He went on to secure early investment from the former government minister, Lord Young, and today, KashFlow has over 10,000 customers and continues to grow.
To learn more about Duane’s experiences and to meet other like-minded entrepreneurs, come along to the EF seminar on Tuesday 29 November at the new Hammersmith Academy from 18h30 – 20h30. Click here:
