While some tech leaders are focused on the tech, others are focused on spreading the gospel of tech into the halls of politics and decision-making. One such leader is Chris Holmes, a Peer in the House of Lords, who dived deep with TC on topics such as tech and leadership, but with a bit of twist. From his first steps into the tech world, all the way to where he is now, the story of Chris Holmes is one we’re sure will captivate you and give you quite a lot to think about.
“Don’t let anybody tell you that you can’t, or tech isn’t for you. Believe in yourself and your idea, surround yourself with people who support you, and don’t ever be afraid to ask for help.“
