Graeme Donnelly, Founder, 1st Formations
I’ve spent the last 35+ years building businesses that do more than just make money – they serve real people, solve real problems, and create long-term, meaningful impact.
I founded my first company in the early ’90s and haven’t looked back. Across multiple ventures – including 1st Formations, Rapid Formations, and QCF (all now part of BSQ Group) – I’ve helped hundreds of thousands of entrepreneurs launch and grow businesses in the UK and beyond. Today, BSQ Group leads the UK’s company formation industry, supported by a brilliant team of 140+ people and a culture driven by purpose, not just profit.
