I help entrepreneurs in small, growing technology companies to raise money from investors such as venture capital firms and industrial firms (I'm an investment banker). This gives me the chance to work in interesting fields including renewable energy, batteries, electric and hydrogen vehicles, sustainable materials and foods, agri-tech. . I have written a book and a movie script. I've spent a year travelling around India , exploring charities, social causes and spirituality. I learned buddhism and meditation, lived with hindu monks, and stayed in a Sikh temple. I've interviewed a gangster in his den, taught children in the slums, and helped a lawyer to fight the land mafia to clear elephant corridors across the jungles of Kerala.
