The record lists Robin Saxby as British businessman (born 1947).
Robin Saxby was born at Chesterfield in 1947. His recorded nationality is United Kingdom. He was educated at University of Liverpool and Brookfield Community School.
Post-war business was mass-market and increasingly multinational, managed by professionals rather than owners.
He worked as engineer and entrepreneur.
Enterprises outlive their founders or they do not, and that is the whole test.
Recognition followed: Faraday Medal (2002), Knight Bachelor and IEEE Founders Medal (2019).
That the business was built from United Kingdom shaped it: capital, regulation and market size differ by country, and they decide what is even attemptable.
