Evolve Business Festival’s opening event!
Kicking off the event with our key note speaker – Tom Mercer from MOMA, Making Oats More Awesome.
Tom is an Entrepreneur in every sense of the word, former management consultant who saw a gap in the market for healthy on the go breakfasts. Tom decided to do something about it. From being thrown out of Charing Cross station for ‘loitering’ whist counting commuter footfall and selling MOMA’s very first oaty breakfast from a stand made from filing cabinets in Waterloo station. In just 10 years, MOMA is now a multi million pound business stocked in supermarkets across the country, airlines, offices and high street shops.
Come and hear Toms amazing story; the highs, the lows and the recipe for success! Take a look at Toms video here
Tom has recently been named in Business insiders top 100 coolest people in food!
Followed by a Q&A panel of Entrepreneurs and Founders from successful local businesses.
The panel will delve into their ambitions, goals and reasons why they do what they do. Do you have any burning questions or need some advice? Hosted by Warren Munson, Founder of Inspire Professional Services, our Q&A panel will be your chance to ask!

Tom Mercer
Founder of MOMA
"I think we all deserve a quality breakfast. When I worked in the city, I was fed up with the lack of healthy options I could pick up during my commute. I was also just itching to get out and start a company of my own. It didn't take me long to realise what I needed to do, and so MOMA was born. We sold our first oats from a makeshift stall (an old filing cabinet) in Waterloo Station and haven't looked back since."
