Rob Law MBE is the founder and CEO of Trunki, the brand behind the much-loved ride-on suitcase for tots. Born with Cystic Fibrosis, Rob realised at an early age that his career options were limited – he couldn’t be an astronaut or a soldier, and his parents were told he was unlikely to live long enough to even have a career. After he tragically lost his sister as a teenager, he decided life was too short to give up and threw everything he had into defying expectations and pursuing his dreams. Creative, tenacious and with unstoppable drive he built a bedroom business into a global brand worth more than £12m, overcoming setbacks and challenges in both his personal and professional life. He appeared on Dragon’s Den in 2006 where his business was deemed worthless. He is now cited as one of the most famous ‘failures’ who went on to prove everyone wrong. Inspirational and life affirming, Rob’s story will have broad appeal.
