Overcoming adversity and tragedy - with Antony Thompson
March 6, 2023
A career cut short from injury is always a difficult thing to accept. A footballer who retires due to a serious ACL tear, a pilot who sustains an eye injury and must pivot to a management job, or a military officer who finds themselves off active service due to a cruel twist of fate: it's alway tough. It was especially tough for Antony Thompson. In the midst of a distinguished career in the Royal Marines, during regulation training in the Brecon Beacons – he jumped with a weight and ruptured multiple ligaments in his legs. It was a testament to his mental strength that Antony overcame that setback. His desire to succeed and keep his freedom led him to start his own business. Today we'll find out how he did it, and how Lupin, his AI-driven business designed to boost worker performance, has succeeded in the next stage of his life.
