Welcome to the Startup Palette Show. When you think of Startups you think of Silicon Valley. We’re going to go beyond the valley and paint a picture of the startup ecosystem, featuring diverse founders, investors and operators. We will hear about their origin stories that shaped them, the highlights, the lowlights, their startup best practice and their vision for the future. Join me as we get a front seat to witness the phenomenal role of these path-breakers that too often fly under the radar. The Podcast is respectfully filmed in Wangal or Gadigal Country of the Eora Nation.
