Making a Fortune by Spinder Dhaliwal

Making a Fortune by Spinder Dhaliwal

Asian entrepreneurs and businesses have created wealth faster than the rest of the economy. Asian wealth now creates and sustains more jobs than it has ever done. It stimulates growth in industries and places that would struggle without the engine of entrepreneurship. Asian wealth is diversifying and modernising, it crosses the generational divide.

“…an interesting analysis of British Asian entrepreneurship…inspiring examples from fields as diverse as manufacturing, finance, and pharmaceuticals” (The Times, Saturday 29th March 2008)

Academic and author Dr. Spinder Dhaliwal is a recognised and leading expert in her field. Spinder has written extensively about the Asian business community and compiles 'Britain's Richest Asians' in Success magazine for Eastern Eye reflecting her long held interest in the field. She wrote the influential study "Silent contributors  - Asian Female Entrepreneurs and Women in Business" which highlighted this important, yet often neglected, issue. Her report for Barclays Bank entitled, 'Asian entrepreneurs in the UK" received global attention.

Spinder knows all about the challenges of the Asian entrepreneur from first hand experience. Her parents, who came to the UK from the Punjab in the 1960's, ran a corner shop in which Spinder balanced the demands of a busy family business with high academic achievement

She has been a regular contributor to the Asian media and, in the past few years, has become an increasingly influential figure in more mainstream circles. She was the founder and director of the centre for Asian Entrepreneurial research and is a Board Member of the Institute of Small Business and Enterprise. Spinder is also invited to address audiences as a speaker, is a freelance writer and helps major organisations target and understand the Asian community.
