Ben Gotting - Co-Founder of The Foundry, former Rugby Player for London Wasps, Worcester Warriors, London Welsh & England U21s

This week we have a guest who is uniquely placed to share experiences from both a business and sporting perspective: Ben Gotting. Ben spent 10 years as a professional sportsman playing rugby for London Wasps, Worcester Warriors and London Welsh, as well as England U21s.

After finishing his Rugby career, Ben entered the world of Personal Training, and in July 2015 opened “The Foundry” in partnership with Dave Thomas.

Just one year later they were voted "one of the best gyms in the world" by Men's Health magazine.

Today, they’ve added two additional London sites, a fully employed team of over 25, a fully operational online coaching platform and an exceptional community.
