To help us choose last year’s 30 Under 30, we sent each candidate a series of questions to see what made them tick. Here’s how Guy Halford-Thompson, who is Founder and CEO of BTL Group Ltd., responded.

Beyond family and friends, who inspires you to succeed?
“I look at my peers, I look at other people who have built successful companies. What really drives me is I want to build a company that has an impact on the world.”

What’s your biggest fear?
“Risk management is very important. I need to be aware of everything that is a risk to my business. Every business has risks. To me, dwelling on potential fears about what may or may not happen is generally not a constructive use of my time. I typically don’t look at what our greatest fears are too much.”

Meet the 2017 winners at the 30 Under 30 celebration.
