Our Story.

BGI was started by Deri Llewellyn-Davies, entrepreneur, business speaker and strategist.

His years in business taught him the vital role of strategy, and how lack of strategic rigour was one of the main reasons for company failure. This led to the creation of BGI, and the publication of his Amazon best-selling book, Strategy on a Page. Deri’s expertise in this field has seen him talk to over three hundred boards, advising dozens of companies on how to achieve scale up.

BGI is also scaling up. Deri has been joined by Ian Mitchell and Malcolm Duffy, who both know the pleasure and pain of owning a business, having grown and sold their companies. They are supported by a team of over thirty hand-picked scale up experts, who are all passionate about helping ambitious owners.

We understand your world and the steps you need to take.

When we are not scaling up your business, we like to do the unusual.

You might find one of us playing lead guitar on stage, writing acclaimed novels, climbing Everest, spending time with our family, sailing across an ocean, working with charities, hosting a world record breaking dinner party, or in search of the perfect cup of coffee.

We are always up to something unusual.
