Respect from your peers is one of the key indicators that you are on the right path as an entrepreneur.
Dan Rowson, who is the founder and director of So-Media Productions, received such recognition. He was announced as one of the ‘Ones To Watch’ as part of The LDC Top 50 Most Ambitious Business Leaders programme for 2021.
