Episode 7: SME Crown Representatives, Past and Present
In this final episode in our series, Warren talks with Stephen Allott, Emma Jones MBE and Martin Traynor OBE - all three people to have held the position of the UK Government’s small and medium-sized enterprise (SME) Crown Rep since the role was created in 2011. The conversation draws together their individual and collective perspectives on the Digital Marketplace and public procurement generally, and how vital this is to create open, transparent, competitive and innovative markets, which are accessible to SMEs and helps them to grow.
