Welcome to UCL’s Inclusive Innovators podcast, part of the East London Inclusive Enterprise Zone (ELIEZ) ELIEZ is an accessible, specially designed, community for entrepreneurs who are disabled or whose work focuses on accessibility.  In this series, listeners will have an opportunity to hear from start-ups, design thinkers, entrepreneurs and partners that are part of the ELIEZ community.  Each episode is hosted by Matt Pierri who founded Sociability, an app which helps disabled people find accessible spaces.

In this episode we’re joined by Managing Director of Plexal, Andrew Roughan. An experienced and inspiring business leader who launched Here East, along with CEO Gavin Poole. Andrew was a crucial part of the development of Here East, and led Plexal, which has become one of the most important innovation centres in London.
