Every week I sit down for half an hour, talking with thinkers, inventors, creators and innovators in every field, from tech to fashion and from arts to sports. Some are famous, some create things that are part of our lives and some are simply cool! All are fascinating and have great practical experience to share. Conversations about what drives and guides them, how they turn ideas into reality! So join us every Friday at Table 414 — with me, Allan Davidson — for a fascinating, fun and productive half hour! Hosted by Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.
