This is a great insight for an IT MSP startups. Jonathan is very knowledgeable which i think comes from his vast experience on doing things by himself. He covers the technical, management, products and basically idiot guide to start your start up. Being in UK myself, it gave me confidence for the preparation in my startup. Thanks

Very informative. Definitely filled in a lot of blanks for me. The presenter keeps you engaged and is not boring.

This guy really knows his stuff and I can already see him pushing me to be an excellent leader for my MSP. Respect

Don't know yet. Everything so far has been what I believe to be common knowledge for anyone that's been in the IT business for a while as either an employee, or a business owner.
