Live Special! The Early Stages of Entrepreneurship with Martell Blue Swift

Arthur Kay, Freddie Garland, Daniel Scott, Henry Hales, Archie Hewlett

This is a very exciting episode for us — it marks the first time we’ve ever recorded the podcast in front of a live audience. In December I sat down at the Conduit Club in Mayfair with five of the most exciting young entrepreneurs in London, and spoke to them about their memories and experiences in those make-or-break first days of the start-up game.

We were very lucky to be joined at the Conduit by Freddie Garland of Freddie’s Flowers, Daniel Scott of AirSorted, Henry Hales of Sir Plus, Arthur Kay of BioBean, and Archie Hewlett of Duke and Dexter.

It’s definitely one of the most interesting and downright useful episodes we’ve ever recorded, and we’re incredibly grateful to Martell Blue Swift for collaborating with us on a very special evening.

This episode has been recorded at Mark's Club,read by Joseph Bullmore and produced by Martin Lumsden.
