About

Lord Sugar & Piers Morgan

When Lord Sugar was asked to go head-to-head with “frenemy” Piers Morgan at a recent conference his answer was typically robust: “When it was suggested that I do this event with Piers Morgan, I laughed it off. I tend to avoid spending more time with Piers than generally one needs to. However, we have never spoken at a business event together before and I do think that it will be quite fun to take questions from the audience and roast Piers for all to see. I hope that all who come along will learn about scaling up their business, but most of all I hope Piers hates every second!”

In the event their on-stage chemistry was such that the audience loved every second and their combined experience and intelligence gave valuable insights into the important and illuminating questions about leadership, success, business, branding, politics,  journalism, sport and the media.

So enjoyable did the format prove that Piers Morgan and Lord Sugar have decided to repeat the experience and are available to host a 90-minute moderated Q&A/Fireside chat.

With a combined social media following of well-over 12 million, Piers regular hosting of Good Morning Britain and Lord Sugar’s presenting of The Apprentice their influence over the news agenda and public opinion is prodigious.

Witty, informative, entertaining, intellectual – but always opinionated – this formidable duo are guaranteed to raise the roof on any conference.

Two years later he moved to be Editor of the Daily Mirror, where he served from 1995 until 2004. The paper won numerous journalistic awards including Newspaper of the Year at the prestigious British Press Awards in 2002 for its coverage of 9/11.
