Welcome to The Entrepreneur Within Podcast, a weekly audio show dedicated to the innovation community with your host Mark Roberts.

Each week, you’ll hear innovation tales from entrepreneurs and intrapreneurs who are leaders in their field… sharing their insights, advice and war stories… about how they have used innovation to drive growth.

In this episode, we’re speaking to Hazel Savage. She shares her incredible story about how she went from failed punk rocker, into the world of music tech, before setting up her business – Musiio – and selling it to SoundCloud after four years.

She’s now an angel investor focussing on deep tech and offers some tremendous advice in our innovation traps and tips section. This is a great one.

The Entrepreneur Within Podcast is a weekly audio show dedicated to the innovation community hosted by Mark Roberts.

This episode's guest is Dom Dwight, Strategy & Innovation Director at Taylors of Harrogate, makers of Yorkshire Tea.

Dom’s personal career path has seen him work as a journalist and editor before becoming a marketing director and then leading Taylors of Harrogate’s innovation programme. He talks candidly about the benefits, and challenges, of running that department within a major organisation. But most importantly, he talks about how innovation has led Yorkshire Tea to become the country’s biggest brand from third place in just a few years.

Innovation leads directly to growth, and this episode shows exactly how successful it can be.

Welcome to The Entrepreneur Within Podcast, a weekly audio show dedicated to the innovation community, with Mark Roberts.

It is for innovators working within organisations, for start-up founders, and for owners of established businesses seeking to shake things up.

Every week, you’ll hear real stories from some of the world’s most interesting innovators on how they have forged innovation-led growth and what’s going on in the world of innovation.

In this episode, I spoke to Hester van Lint. A wonderful human, a friend for a good decade, and I think the perfect interviewee for this podcast. Why? Well, as part of my role as an intrapreneur within AB InBev, Hester was my COO. As someone who had worked in the company for over a decade, it was her job to help our team navigate the systems, processes and vagrancies of a huge multinational. Keeping the big business on side give me the freedom to operate more freely and without restrictions. It’s a formula: ‘founder + COO’ that I think can work well to stop the large business from accidentally squashing the small start-up within its ranks.

This interview is full of brilliant tips to navigate one of the hardest roles in any business. Listen in.

Welcome to the The Entrepreneur Within Podcast, a weekly audio show dedicated to the innovation community, hosted by Mark Roberts.

It is for innovators working within organisations, for start-up founders and for owners of established businesses.

In this episode, we had a conversation with Dan Nord. Dan has had a remarkable career working at Maxar in space technologies—yes, his pitches involved satellites—as GM at Electronic Arts and as Head of Product and GM at Amazon. Today, Dan is a board member at nDreams, a global leader in VR and AR game development and publishing.

Dan talks about the astonishing lengths Amazon goes to to maintain that start-up mindset in a vast company, his experience of pitching a billion-dollar idea to Jeff Bezos himself, and his concept of ‘per cent’ innovation. Plus, a jaw-dropping anecdote from a meeting with Bezos.

In this episode, we talk to Paul McKay, the founder of Analogue Wonderland. This business celebrates a passion for film in a digital world and is on a mission to put the soul back into photography.

In sharing his innovation tale, he speaks eloquently about the challenges of being an intrapreneur within a global corporation. He also discusses his experience starting his own business, scaling it rapidly, and adding innovation to remain ahead of the curve. I think this includes a piece of advice that is pure gold.
