Manage episode 295088174 series 2854681
Can you still succeed when profit isn’t your primary motivation? Today’s guest shows us that you can. In this episode she tells us how staying true to your purpose can do a whole lot of good for your bottom line, and in her case - a whole lot of good for the world. Tessa is the founder of Olio: the app that connects neighbours with each other and with local businesses, so surplus food can be shared, not thrown away. In this conversation with Amrit they discuss how she built Olio from home whilst raising her children, how to use work from home as a superpower, and speaks passionately about the inequality that exists in Startup world; particularly in the world of venture capital.
