Skills learnt in the military could help ex-service personnel succeed in business, according to a new report.

The research, commissioned by Time Reboot, found 40% of FTSE 100 companies had senior directors with a former military background.

Chris Blackford, co-founder of drone-running firm Sky Future, said there were numerous transferable skills which helped him succeed in business.
