What do you do when your business folds? Domm Holland picks up and starts again.

Domm burst onto the scene with his marketplace called Tow, which became the 'Uber of towing'. After a dispute with the Queensland Government, the business wasn’t able to survive but incredibly, Dom had a second act, when he moved to Silicon Valley to launch his next business: the one-stop online checkout solution Fast.

Despite raising more than $100 million and briefly becoming a unicorn, Fast was not able to survive and was forced to shut its doors.

In this episode, which was recorded just weeks before Tow collapsed, Domm speaks with host Adam Schwab about building resilience as a kid, why his ideas were always too big for Australian VCs and his grand plans for Fast.
