There's a lot of noise out there. But rather than fight it - we dive in. Real conversations, in real environments, real spontaneity. We meet with entrepreneurs in crowded coffee shops, busy factory floors, street corners and less than perfect phone lines. Celebrating the sometimes hidden signals of background noise. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
