Tech for Non-Techies

200. Five lessons from building Tech for Non-Techies


Listen Later

Five years ago, I was selling tickets to my classes for $20 on Eventbrite, and today, my company works with governments, corporates and successful leaders around the world.

I have taught my course at London Business School, Oxford and Techstars and written for the Harvard Business Review.

On this anniversary episode, I'm going to share how I built Tech for Non-Techies, and the entrepreneurial lessons I learnt along the way.

Listen to learn:

  • How TFNT went from $20 ticket sales to six figure corporate contracts
  • What to do now if you want to build a venture
  • How to scale without investor funding
  • The difference between success and failure that you won't learn at business school
Resources mentioned in this episode:
  • Episode 100. My story: ambition, tech and the camel incident
