Bettany Centre for Entrepreneurship Speaker Series: Nick Jenkins

To kick off Global Entrepreneurship Week 2022, Cranfield School of Management are thrilled to host Nick Jenkins, Founder & Investor, in addition to our annual Bettany Centre November Speaker series.

Nick Jenkins attended the MBA programme at Cranfield in 1998-99 following an eight year career as a commodity trader with Glencore in Moscow. As part of the entrepreneurship course, he developed a business plan for a personalised greeting card retailer. In July 1999 Nick registered Moonpig.com and started trading. After five years of losses and several rounds of fundraising the business finally turned a profit in 2005. The business then grew to five million customers in 2011 before Nick sold most of his stake. Moonpig floated in 2021 and has a current market cap of £700 million.
