Russell Goldsmith and Brendon Craigie were joined online from Tel Aviv, by Arik Shtilman, CEO of Rapyd.

This is the fourth episode in our special series being produced in partnership with the European PR agency Tyto and their own ‘Without Borders’ podcast, where we are interviewing leaders of companies that have reached, or are close to reaching, Unicorn status, to find out about the key issues, pain points and challenges that startups face and how they can address them with a strategic approach to marketing and communications.

As we continue to record these through lockdown, due to the coronavirus pandemic, we also look at how companies are adapting to working through the Covid-19 crisis.
