Business
Dan Smith is country manager for Mass Challenge a startup accelerator with a global network in throughout Boston, London, Mexico, Adelaide and more. Dan has had significant exposure to startup and new business programs, and we talk about a range of issues, including - the purpose of a startup accelerator, other new business programs and the different functions on offer. And then there’s the big question: Which program, if any, is right for you? We also talk about startup ecosystems, and how startups can transition out of the safety net of these supportive programs into the real world. And then we chat to three startup founders who have just been through the MassChallenge program to talk about the birth of their companies.
