GUEST BIO:
After 10 years supporting Fortune 500 & FTSE 100 leaders executing transformation in their organizations, Jim had his first child and decided to move to Europe's wind sports capital, Tarifa in Southern Spain. Here he met the 10x world champion kitesurfer where they decided to build a world first kitesurf academy in a 6,000 square foot unit Jim had built just 100m from the beach.
In 2013 he learnt about the Amazon FBA model and launched a brand which quickly reached 7 figures. Fast forward to 2021 and Jim is currently working with Thrasio as Director of Acquisitions, the leading acquirer and investor in Amazon and eComm brands.
