Smoothie tycoon has £1m to give to entrepreneurs
Businessman Richard Reed could hand out as much as £1 million to young entrepreneurs in a new television search for the country’s next generation of business brains.
Mr Reed, one of the co-founders of drinks brand Innocent Smoothies, will host Be Your Own Boss on BBC3.
Applicants will be given money by Mr Reed and tasked with turning a profit – and there is more money available for them if they do well.
