About the session
This presentation is a tour of the history of the Morgan Motor Company, the 'first and last' family-owned sports car company in existence, The speaker, who is the grandson of the founder, H.F.S. Morgan, gives a personal insight into the 30-year cycles that have shaped a business and motoring legend. Concentrating on the four significant eras that have fashioned the Morgan business today and beyond, the speaker begins with 1909-1939, the 'entrepreneur era', and tells the story of H.F.S. Morgan, the founding father and the self-made man behind the Morgan motor car, tracking his life from the beginning as the son of a Herefordshire rector to the chairman of a successful sports car company.
