Forth’s CEO and founder, Sarah Bolt, was recently interviewed by David Clency in his latest article in South West Business Insider on ‘Silverpreneurs’: Entrepreneurs over 50.

The article discusses how those who have progressed their careers to a certain point, are often ready for a reboot, leading them to become entrepreneurs. For Sarah, this was definitely the case. Hitting 40 was the turning point and Forth was the result.

In the article, Sarah says:

“I don’t think age is an issue. The most successful entrepreneurs on the whole are a lot older, but the media do tend to focus on the Googles and the Facebooks.”
