JOHN ROSSMAN - AMAZON INSIDER - OCTOBER 2019
John Rossman is a US tech entrepreneur who worked alongside Jeff Bezos as he built Amazon. America’s third most valuable company after Microsoft and Apple, Amazon has a stock market value approaching a trillion dollars – bigger than the national income of Switzerland, Taiwan, Sweden and all but 17 countries in the world. The company accounts for almost half of all US internet-based retailing, up from less than a fifth back in 2011. And this e-commerce giant – whose activities now range from retailing to entertainment, health and life sciences – is increasingly in the firing line, over subjects including data use, market power and tax. John Rossman, who launched and led some of Amazon’s most important divisions, provides insightful analysis on all these issues and more. We also discuss his book - "Think Like Amazon: 50 and a half ideas to become a Digital Leader" This interview was written up in The Telegraph on Sunday 13th October 2019 https://www.telegraph.co.uk/business/2019/10/12/amazons-success-stifling-future-innovators/

JONATHAN TEPPER - AUTHOR OF "THE MYTH OF CAPITALISM" - DECEMBER 2018
Jonathan Tepper is the co-author of "The Myth of Capitalism: Monopolies and the Death of Competition". In his book, Tepper describes how America has gone from an open, competitive marketplace to an economy where a few very powerful companies dominate key industries that affect our daily lives – from health insurance, to many consumer goods and also tech giants like Google and Facebook and Amazon. “Every day, ordinary people transfer their money to monopolists and oligopolists” says Tepper – proposing instead vigorous anti-trust legislation to return America and other Western nations including the UK to an era when competition created higher economic growth, more jobs and higher wages, and more start-up companies too. As a founder of several companies himself, with a background in both finance and citizen journalism, this is a story Tepper is well-qualified to tell.
