We are joined by another of the inspirational thought leaders who UBS supports through its Global Visionaries programme. This time it’s the remarkable Mark Pollock. After losing his sight in 1998 he became an ultra-endurance athlete, becoming the first blind adventurer to race to the South Pole. In 2010, however, he suffered another devastating blow when a fall broke his back, leaving him paralysed. He tells us more about his latest and arguably greatest expedition: founding the Mark Pollock Trust in an effort to find a fast-track cure for paralysis.
