What do you do when you discover you’re getting an Apple Watch as a present for Christmas?  For most of us, we’d probably brag about it on social media but for our 17-year-old genius Will Bishop, he decided to do what the likes of Twitter, Reddit and Wikipedia hadn’t done – create apps that actually work well for the Apple Watch.

 

Fast forward, he has successfully created 3 apps that are currently being used by Apple Watch users all around the world!  In this episode, we speak to him about his journey and what it’s like being an entrepreneur achieving amazing feats at such a young age.

 

Listen on and be inspired to follow your dream as Will talks about passion, education, and innovation.

 

In this Episode You’ll Learn:

  • How solving problems really is at the heart of entrepreneurship
  • Passion matters just as much as education (or maybe it matters more?)
  • His experience in winning a competition to attend the Apple Worldwide Conference in California
  • Advice to young aspiring developers and entrepreneurs
  • How different age brackets balance between Ideas, Risk and Responsibility

 

Until next time - keep INNOVATING, OVERCOMING and PROSPERING

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
