Welcome to the The Entrepreneur Within Podcast, a weekly audio show dedicated to the innovation community, hosted by Mark Roberts.
It is for innovators working within organisations, for start-up founders and for owners of established businesses.
In this episode, we had a conversation with Dan Nord. Dan has had a remarkable career working at Maxar in space technologies—yes, his pitches involved satellites—as GM at Electronic Arts and as Head of Product and GM at Amazon. Today, Dan is a board member at nDreams, a global leader in VR and AR game development and publishing.
Dan talks about the astonishing lengths Amazon goes to to maintain that start-up mindset in a vast company, his experience of pitching a billion-dollar idea to Jeff Bezos himself, and his concept of ‘per cent’ innovation. Plus, a jaw-dropping anecdote from a meeting with Bezos.
