#16 Harveen Chugh - Living, Breathing and Studying Entrepreneurship.

Dr Harveen Chugh is associate professor of entrepreneurship Warwick business school. She is an absolute ocean of knowledge when it comes to entrepreneurship and I can’t think of a better way to start off a new season of Startup Talkup. If you are an early stage company I would highly recommend following her on LinkedIn and connecting with her.

#11 - Thish De Zoysa on a very interesting take on finance, investment, sales and a certain philosophy of money.

Today we talk to Thish De Zoysa, founder and CEO of Their Perfect Gift. Thish is a distinguished start-up founder with an infectious zeal for what I might call financial justice and fairness. Whether it’s building your product, selling your product or building a team around your product - Thish has an amazing depth of experience that we try to tap into in this conversation. I’ve known Thish for a few years but I had no inkling of the scale of his big ideas, which could turn the world of banking on its head - it almost becomes a discussion about the philosophy of money.

Episode 1 [beta]

...A long time ago... ...In a dingy little office not too far away... We decided to do a podcast about all things startup with a special focus on AI in healthcare. Except we got distracted by a million and one other things - not least actually running our own startup - so we never got round to doing it. Until now. We revive our phantom podcast with a stellar line-up of key leaders and thinkers as well as budding innovators. Whether you are a founder, an investor or just interested in healthcare or AI, we'll try and deliver genuinely practical and applicable content. So pull up your arm chair or tie up your trainers - do whatever you do to get geared up for invigorating discussion and debate - and don't forget to hit the subscribe button. We'll see you on the real Episode 1. Brought to you by The Jiva.ai Team Hosted by Manish Patel Photo by Yoal Desurmont on Unsplash
