Episode 55: Entrepreneurship and interventional radiology: Q&A with Blockchain co-founder Nicolas Cary
"One of the things entrepreneurs screw up a lot that I see is that they spend so much time on their product idea, or the invention ... and they don't spend any time talking to customers or doing sales. And like, the most important thing you can do to validate your business idea is prove that someone is willing to compensate you for something."—Nicolas Cary, co-founder and former CEO of Blockchain
In this episode, noted Blockchain co-founder and cryptocurrency expert Nicolas Cary speaks with moderators and audience members at an SIR Edge session on entrepreneurship on how IRs can apply the lessons he's learned in their daily practice, the future of digital finance and more.
