Summary

Which businesses could dig Britain out of the COVID recession? What will industry need to do to adapt to a new, socially-distanced reality? What are all those people involved in hospitality, services and entertainment going to do for a living? And is this a good time to start a business? Entrepreneur, investor and original mother of dragons DEBORAH MEADEN talks to Alex Andreou about the blank slate that is post-COVID business. “There are very few moments in business where everything changes. And this is one of them.” “We might find that we’ve changed forever how we go out and socialise in pubs or restaurants.” “My businesses have been through a scary moment. But now it’s become an exciting moment for us.” “You NEVER do everything at once in business. And with Brexit the Government is trying to do exactly that.” “There’s no point in having your money sitting in the bank right now. Get it out. Get it working.” Presented by Alex Andreou. Produced by Andrew Harrison. Assistant producer Jacob Archbold. Music by Kenny Dickinson. Audio production by Alex Rees. THE BUNKER is a Podmasters Production.
