Nick Telson, co-creator of the hugely successful night-out booking platform Design My Night and now Co Founder of investment fund and "start-up playground" Horseplay Ventures, joins the Wax/On team to talk about the nightlife sector's renaissance post COVID. He shares the highs and lows of his own start-up journey, including when and why to exit.
Plus, what happens if you get Seller's Remorse? Nick explains that he's discovered that money doesn't drive him: he enjoys the hustle and bustle of business. He also explains what he's doing to try and improve inclusion in the start-up community. And we learn that his favourite TV ad may have been inspired by a 19th century pre-raphaelite painting.
