Simon Das

Founder

A father of two young boys and husband to Elizabeth, Simon Das is the founder of 978 Group. The number '978' is taken from the metres above sea level of England's highest mountain, Scafell Pike, located in the heart of the lake district. The brand was created in Morecambe with views over the bay to the lake district and represents being on top and overcoming the challenges faced en route. Simon has climbed Scafell Pike several times and now has the skills and ability to guide others to the summit via a safe and steady route, just like his company intends to take their partners, investors and employees; to the top of their game and help them to reach their potential.
