#15 Malcolm Wood - Serial Entrepreneur of 35+ Businesses, Filmmaker of A Plastic Ocean & The Last Glaciers, on Why Success Is A Team Sport

"The passion AND the challenge is an important combination. Make sure it's hard enough. Everything rewarding I've done, has been hard."

Malcolm is best known as a leading influence in the F&B industry and cofounded the multi-award winning Maximal Concepts. He has opened over 35 different concepts in his career and is best known for the flagship restaurant brand Mott 32, one of the most awarded Chinese restaurants in the world.

A passionate environmental filmmaker and social entrepreneur, he was heavily involved in the production of  “A Plastic Ocean”, described by Sir David Attenborough as “the most important film of our time”.  His follow-on film “The Last Glaciers” is set for release in 2021 and will be the most comprehensive film ever produced about the relationship between climate change, mountain environments, and glaciers. One of the world's few experts in paralpinism, Malcolm was also recently selected as the first paraglider, speed flyer, and filmmaker to join UN Environment’s campaign ‘Mountain Heroes’.

This wide-ranging conversation reflects the incredible breadth of business interests Malcolm holds across the Steelhead Group. We discuss: identity, managing fear, entrepreneurship, filmmaking, extreme sports, sustainability, climate change, and parental wisdom.
