This week, James is joined by Professor Mike Trenell, one of the UK's leading lifestyle medicine researchers in digital health and diabetes having published over 100 peer-reviewed papers. Mike is also a Professor of Metabolism & Lifestyle Medicine at Newcastle University, founding director of the National Health Innovation Observatory and the expert behind the BBC documentary, 'How to Stay Young', where he used his background in weight management, diabetes and nutrition to inform the documentary's studies.

A load of lessons for entrepreneurs and those interested in health and technology this week, James and Mike discuss elite sport and tech, the value of good mentors shaping you, how we’re all standing on the shoulders of giants in healthtech right now and the changing heath tech landscape through Mike’s time in the sector.
