- The role that US and EU investors play in financing high-growth firms
- The global opportunities that UK business leaders should be considering
- The proportion of high-growth company founders that are foreign nationals (it’s a lot higher than you might think)
- The percentage of business leaders that are looking to hire from Europe and the US
- How many businesses are being bought by foreign firms
