A startup CEO who grew up caring for his siblings and disabled mother reveals his tough journey breaking into tech

This story requires our BI Prime membership. To read the full article,Dean Forbes, 41, grew up in south London, where he looked after his two younger brothers and disabled mother.

It was a single-parent household, with mum raising me and my two younger brothers. She suffered from chronic muscular dystrophy, which meant I was effectively her carer from the age of 11. My agent got me a job in a call centre, working for Motorola, while we looked for other clubs for me to play for. I cried and cried for weeks.It took time but I slowly got my head around the situation.

And the person we're meeting might assume I'm the junior person in the room, despite that not being the case.
