Holly Tucker

The embodiment of creativity and empowerment, Holly brings a riot of colour to an often-greyworld of business.
As the founder of Holly & Co, notonthehighstreet and the UK Ambassador to Creative Small Businesses, Holly champions and shines a light on the incredible talent of creative small business owners and future founders across the world.
She believes that following your passion and building a business doing what you love is the key to a happy and fulfilled life. Holly is kind, selfless and trustworthy. She is the antithesis of the stereotypical entrepreneur and challenges everything we think we know about the professional world.
Not afraid to be herself, she has pumped over 1 billion into the UK economy, and helped countless small business owners grow their businesses. Having founded the immersive brand Holly & Co to help small businesses through the highs and lows of their business journeys, she is leading the campaign for change by redefining what it means to be a ‘small business’, encouraging more women to start their own businesses, as well as empowering our young with the skills to thrive in the new working world they are entering.
Holly presents her own podcast; Conversations of Inspiration, which is consistently in the iTunes business charts top 10. Holly chats to the UK's brightest and most well-known founders of both small businesses and large iconic brands including Fearne Cotton, Sir TimSmit, Julie Deane and Richard Reed.
Her annual event, the Congregation of Inspiration, has to be seen to be believed. Think amass-participation sing-along to your favourite feel-good tunes, an explosion of creativity and a place to both be yourself and chase your dreams.
Holly also has a best-selling book ‘Do What You Love, Love What You Do’ deemed to be the new business-bible, in which Holly looks back at her own story, sharing her biggest lessons and proven advice on creating and growing a business.
From side hustle to full-time, from defeating your confidence gremlins to creating an empowered community, Holly reveals both the skills and the mindset any founder needs to help their business thrive.
