ÜBER DIESE EPISODE
In the first of these bonus episode releases from the 24 hour podcast challenge, I speak with Co-Founder and Co-CEO of Plus X, Mat Hunter. Mat aims to build the infrastructure for innovators and entrepreneurs that will help to grow great companies, provide productive and stimulating employment for diversely talented people and drive economic growth across the UK.
Mat has worked for more than 25 years in the world of human centred innovation. Formerly Partner at global design innovation agency IDEO, and Chief Design Officer of the UK Design Council, he brings a wealth of experience in supporting startups, scaleups and corporate innovation teams, dealing with issues of health, the environment, employment and other pressing innovation challenges, as well as engaging with academia and government.
In this fascinating episode Mat talks about:
💥 Building an innovative community
💥 Understanding the problem you are trying to solve
💥 People's attitude towards innovative collaboration
Are you making painkillers or vitamins? ~ Mat Hunter
He discusses in depth the nuance behind really solving the pain points of a problem and asking the question, are you making something that is like a vitamin, a nice to have, or a painkiller and really solving a problem that will have a major impact? Mat's clear passion for entrepreneurship and innovation was a genuine joy to talk about and the perfect way to kick off the 24 hour podcast challenge.
Mat's rule for living a fulfilled life:
💥 Get fired up by what fires you up and do what you love...
Everyone has a story to tell... Happy Listening 🎧
