Emma Sinclair MBE^[1] is a British businesswoman, serial entrepreneur^[2] and journalist.

Early life and education

Emma Sinclair grew up in London, where she still resides. She was always interested in business, reading her father the share prices from the age of 4 to 18 on her way to school. She credits that with her love of stock markets, business and entrepreneurial life. She studied French, Spanish and Italian at Leeds University, graduating with a BA in Modern Languages.

A firm believer in a strong work ethic handed down from her father, her first job was working in McDonald's where she gained five stars during school. She subsequently worked in bars and restaurants through university. She also completed two City internships in companies subsequently acquired by Merrill Lynch, unusually in her first year not final year of University, which gave her a taste of finance and City life. On leaving university she joined a graduate training programme in Investment Banking.

Career and Philanthropy

She is currently co-founder of EnterpriseAlumni. Their software, EnterpriseAlumni, powers the corporate alumni networks of some of the world's largest companies. One of the last areas of HR to be technologised, the corporate alumni market they lead is growing rapidly, with corporates recognising that alumni are a vast pool of talent and business development opportunity.
