Michael Phair

In many ways, Hamish Grierson is the archetypal tech entrepreneur: sharp, single-minded and innovative. But, as this episode of Talking with Tech Leaders shows, that’s really just a tiny part of his story.

For starters, we chat through a career that is varied, to say the least – from studying international politics and paying his way through university with landscape gardening, to pursuing roles in advertising and starting a skiing business. As we said: varied.

A stint with the New Entrepreneurs Foundation put him firmly on today’s path. He talks about the lessons he learned and support he received, before co-founding Thriva Healthcare with two others in 2016.

Hamish chats us through the Thriva story since then: the rounds of investment, supporting the health service through the pandemic and their plans for the years ahead. He also offers some wise words around founding businesses and entrepreneurship, overcoming imposter syndrome and achieving the right balance between professional passions and home life. 

 It’s insightful, fascinating and well worth an hour of your time. Enjoy!
