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 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.
