The Apprentice winner sets sights on boxing empire with Lord Sugar’s backing

From Apprentice to Boxing Promoter

After winning The Apprentice and taking home £250,000, Marnie Swindells is now on a mission to become the female version of boxing promoter Eddie Hearn, with the guidance of Lord Alan Sugar.

Rise to Success

Swindells, who won the BBC entrepreneurial competition last year, used Lord Sugar's investment to launch her own gym, Bronx Boxing Club in Camberwell, South London. Despite facing legal hurdles, she persevered and finally opened the gym four years later.

Passion for Boxing

With a background in amateur boxing and a successful stint on The Apprentice, Swindells is now focused on managing and promoting fighters. She aims to bring a fresh perspective to the male-dominated business side of boxing.

Future Plans

Swindells envisions herself as a trailblazer in the boxing world, aspiring to become a prominent female figure in boxing promotion. While she hasn't discussed her ambitions with Lord Sugar yet, she is confident that he will support her plans as Bronx Boxing Club grows.
