Do they differ? Can we learn anything from traditional and apply it to the creative?

Our conversation is around fostering entrepreneurialism and innovation within creative people. 


Gerard has taught this subject for many years, really living and breathing this idea through his work and experiences. We discuss creative partnerships, what does success look like and if the end goal of creating something is purely for self or is it for a marketability factor?


We also touch on how failure and painful experiences can actually be incredibly informative and life changing. All growth comes from discomfort - so it is in fact an inevitability for anyone testing outputs into a market.
