Serial entrepreneur, columnist, TV presenter and DJ Alexander Amosu sold his first business, £6m-turnover RnB Ringtones, in 2004. His latest offering, Amosu Luxury Phones, is rivalling Vertu in the luxury mobile phone market, with price tags for diamond-encrusted handsets ranging from £5,000 to £1m. Currently customising phones already in the market, it will soon launch its own brand and turnover looks set to rocket to £4-£5m next year. His charity project, Mind of an Entrepreneur, organises events to encourage entrepreneurship and has drawn a number of high profile speakers, such as Cobra Beer founder Lord Bilimoria and Yo! Sushi founder Simon Woodroffe.
