Harrison, the co-founder of pioneering software company Paddle, shares his incredible  journey with us. From co-founding his company at the tender age of 18, to the 'brutal' realities of being responsible for millions of dollars, and hundreds of employees (plus the wild story of  growing from 20-120 employees in just eight months!) 

We discuss how running a business is a means to control your own destiny, and how to tackle diversity within the tech world so that more people understand it is a career path you can take straight from school. 'Education really needs updating so people can understand the options available to them', says Harrison. 

Harrison offers priceless insights into - Revenue Operations (RevOps) - and its pivotal role in crafting successful sales strategies. He brings to light the innovative solutions to challenges like identifying target software companies, utilizing AI to streamline processes, and the significance of culture in a rapidly evolving business landscape.


After 10 years with Paddle, Harrison talks us through the emotional rollercoaster of leaving a company you founded, from finding your joy after an all-consuming job, to feeling like you're betraying your own company. 

Join us for this candid exploration of life before and after reaching the summit of startup success.
