Director Anna Bastek was interviewed by BBC World Service Radio recently about what it’s like to run your own business in Britain.
Coming from a Communist regime in Poland, where everyone had a job for life and very few people ran their own business, Anna had to learn a lot when starting her career in Britain. She talks about how impressed she was about how entrepreneur friendly the UK really is and the differences she found between Poland and Britain. She realised that business in the UK was done on trust – to be able trust your staff and your customers.
She comments on what it's like to be a female entrepreneur in Britain by stating that “people want to help you and there is a lot of support available.”
