Season 2, Episode 6: Building Community

In this episode of Button Banter we chat to Paul Lancaster, founder of PLATFORM and UK Startup Week about:

• His background from a semi-professional DJ travelling the world to becoming a North-East ambassador and “super connector”, spending 25 years giving business startup and growth advice, to leveraging his network to benefit others
• Parallels between music and marketing
• What even is marketing?
• All about UK Startup Week held in Sunderland in June and the monthly networking meeting, Platform. These are great opportunities to build community, to share emotions and experiences. It’s a way to create a network of positive, enthusiastic, and likeminded entrepreneurs.
