Just to sidetrack for a moment. On Friday, I’m meeting with a great ‘ideas man’ Roark McMaster who had the whole panel of ruthless investors in fits of laughter when he appeared on BBC TV’s Dragons Den programme with his Q Top – keeping cucumbers fresher for longer!
If you watch this You Tube clip it won’t be long before you share the same feelings as the Dragons.
Even Roark would probably admit the idea was ridiculous but Peter Jones sensed something more to Roark than just classic British eccentricity. Roark walked away without the investment he was looking for but with a job offer from Peter in his back pocket!
And Peter was right. Through Roark’s company Just Imagine UK he is bringing to life some great ideas both of his own and of other wannabee world-beaters.
I’ll let you know how our ‘ideas summit’ goes.
