Despre acest podcast
The Startups Drive is a podcast built on real, unscripted conversations with people from the startup and business world.
Hosted by Kieran Longhurst, every episode is an open, unfiltered discussion with founders, entrepreneurs, operators, and business leaders — no scripts, no agendas, just honest conversations about what it actually takes to build and grow in today's business landscape.
From early-stage startup founders to seasoned corporate professionals, we talk about the real experiences, challenges, and lessons that don't always make it into the highlight reel.
Topics we've explore so far:
- Startup founding and early-stage growth
- Business strategy and scaling
- Sales, leadership, and team building
- Entrepreneurship and career journeys
- Career transitions and entrepreneurship
- Leadership, accountability, and team building
- The Australian startup and business ecosystem and more.
In season 3 we are bringing you more founder stories, more business leaders conversations, more entrepreneurs and operators insights — the raw, unfiltered journeys of people building companies from the ground up.
If you're a founder, entrepreneur, or someone navigating the business world — pull up a seat.
