Colin Williams is the man behind one of Northern Ireland’s most successful home-grown creative businesses. His children’s TV programmes are exported to countries around the world, watched by an audience of millions.

Building the business hasn’t all been plain sailing. When he started with his first creative business, Colin had to remortgage his house “If you can’t make an investment in yourself, who can you make an investment in?” When he decided to go into making children’s tv programmes, he was told “ people in Northern Ireland don’t make those type of shows.”

We’ll be talking to Colin about what prompted him to start the business, how he stopped fear from holding him back and how he has manged to grow the company successfully.
