Our 2024 Business Showcase last week was a roaring success with a knockout guest speaker: Team GB Olympian Boxer and Paris 2024 Bronze Medallist Lewis Richardson 🥉 🥊
Lewis shared his impressive journey to the Olympics, touching on mindset, challenges, and his plans for the future in a way that resonated with business professionals—though maybe not all of us could handle the pressure and discipline of dropping KGs to make weight for a boxing match! The audience was captivated, with many insightful questions, though we couldn't get to all of them. It's safe to say Lewis is an incredible ambassador for Colchester!
This event was one of our best yet. We’re already looking forward to next year!
