In this podcast I have a wide-ranging interview with Niamh Bushnell who was recently appointed as Dublin's first ever Start-up Commissioner. Among the topics I cover are: What does the role entail - who is funding it - what are Niamh's\xa0hopes for how the role might evolve?
\nDublin has been incredibly successful in attracting so many of the world's top ICT companies to locate their European HQ here -how can that be exploited to ensure a vibrant eco-system of start-ups?
\nWhat are the barriers to start-ups that you are hearing about? Financial / Infrastructural / Training / Networks etc.
\nPlus I pay a visit to the Irish Whiskey Museum to sample the capital's newest visitor attraction and learn more about the marketing strategy behind it.
