In his discussion he expands on common fears associated with ABS, how community makes ABS thrive, and why ignoring ABS is a mistake.

David Beech is the CEO of the professional services firm Knights in the U.K. David has led the business, originally a law firm, since 2011. His vision for Knights is to become the leading regional professional services business in the U.K.
