Simon Squibb is not your average entrepreneur. 

After tragedy saw him leave home at the age 15, Simon went into survival mode - he started a gardening business with no actual experience or knowledge of the industry. 

19 businesses later, Simon is a multimillionaire. 

He's since taken to social media to ask people about their dreams via TikTok and he's founded the ‘Elevator of Dreams’ concept alongside Richard Branson.

He's used his insight to craft a new book - What’s Your Dream? Find Your Passion. Love Your Work. Build a Richer Life.

"I was forced to be an entrepreneur - it wasn't really my path at that moment in my life, I'd never thought about becoming an entrepreneur, no one had ever taught me at school what an entrepreneur was or how to create something in your mind and make it real. I was just like everybody else...but this entrepreneur muscle woke up in my brain."
