About the author

Robert Gerrish

I started Flying Solo and had the pleasure of being ‘head honcho’ for a dozen or so years. Since selling the business to David Koch‚Äôs, Pinstripe Media in late 2017, I’ve returned to my roots. While I continue to write for Flying Solo, produce their podcast and pop up as a presenter and facilitator, I spend the bulk of my time working as a ‘venture strategist’ supporting those going in alone in business. Being a 60-something, a niche I’m increasingly immersed in is that of the ‘older entrepreneur’. In this role I demystify the process of creating smart, lifestyle-led enterprises and help ensure they turn into viable businesses.
