We look at the options and I reveal which option is my current favourite.

Tines co-founder, Eoin Hinchy joins Gary Fox on the podcast this week.

Since being founded in 2018, Tines has raised $100 million valuing the company at north of $400-$500 million.

Tines is a platform that allows anyone automate their repetitive security workflows without writing a single line of code.

Eoin did none of the things people tell you to do when starting a business. He didn't waste time on false metrics and instead got busy building.

He raised millions without even building a pitch deck. He shipped his first product after just 8 weeks of starting the company.

This story will inspire you to reimagine what is possible.
