The Catalysts Podcast

Progressive

The Catalysts Podcast focuses on the key benefits of corporates and startups working together and how these partnerships can become a catalyst for change for the future. This latest 3rd series accompanies the new book that I have co-written with Eamonn Carey, called 'The Startup Lexicon’, which is a guide to the words, phrases, jargon and terminology used in the startup and tech world. In each episode Eamonn and I will discuss 2-3 key words that are crucial to the understanding of the world of start-ups.
