ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Brilliant founders are building the future everywhere, not just in America. Real founders. Real constraints. Real strategies from entrepreneurs building world-changing companies across the globe.
The Founders Playbook is a podcast for entrepreneurs building companies outside the American tech bubble. Host Neil Marshall, Development Director at ChangeSchool London, brings you hard-won lessons from technology and engineering founders across the UK, Finland, Spain, Brazil, India, Syria, and beyond.
Forget the glitzy unicorn stories. This is about real entrepreneurship in capital-constrained environments: bootstrapping, protecting IP, building physical products, and scaling without millions in VC funding.
In this introductory episode, Neil sets the stage for a series featuring founders who've built £800K companies on £50K budgets, launched satellites, trained elite athletes, and created technologies saving healthcare systems billions, all from outside the Silicon Valley ecosystem.
Drawing on ChangeSchool London's work with entrepreneurs in 30+ countries, The Founders Playbook shares the strategies, struggles, and breakthroughs that don't make the headlines but make all the difference.
