Simon Hay, Firefly: Starting Early


Listen Later

Simon Hay started Firefly with a school friend at age 15, beating Mark Zuckerberg in the age stakes! He designed the Firefly learning software to try and solve his own frustrations as a student. What started as revision procrastination has since grown to a global business helping students in 35 countries learn from home.

He is also dad to Angus and Aidan who are 4 and 8 months.

In this episode, Amrit and Simon discuss product market fit, how your attitude to risk changes and the perils of not being good at being bad at things.
