Eastern Promise - The Podcast Mike Rigby

This Week: We hear from one of the East of England's foremost Angel Investors, Peter Cowley.  Host Mike Rigby chats to Peter about his career, the highs and lows of being an angel investor and puts some submitted questions to the man himself.
We also learn about the tumultuous life experiences that have shaped his path, leaving him with many valuable life lessons.  Plus!  A look ahead to what's in this jam-packed run of six episodes...
Peter's book, 'Public Success, Private Grief' is available here.

We investigate your happy places in the East of England, where you go to rest and recalibrate.  A lot of our contributors choose water, some pick pooch walking, long countryside ambles ofwhich we have many.  And coffee shops are ever a popular place to watch your fellow humans and enjoy the benefits of a well-crushed Arabica bean.. 
The makers of this podcast apologise to Scotland for shooting bagpipes out of season, and BBC East for...everything, really.
Yes, we're very sorry - BUT!  It's time for a spell of CROWDSOURCERY!

This Week: We preview the forthcoming East of England Tech Collaboration Event at the Sainsbury Centre on the University of East Anglia's campus, itself a curtain-raiser to Cambridge Tech Week!  
 
And then, for the main event, I chat to Rachel Hales, founder of Get Synergised and the With Purpose platform, along with Hannah Chapman of the Cambridge Acorn Project and Nick Finlayson-Brown, partner and Head of the Cambridge office of Mills & Reeve.
 
And then and then!  We tell you what's happened to your favourite CrowdSourcing feature...(Spoiler alert - not much).
