In these moments, we ask Scott to spill the beans and tell you his vision for innovation at Warner Music Group. Scott applies his ‘big brain’ thinking and talked about “imbuing emotion” into technology. The music industry is “cool” says Scott, so why should the technology we use be soulless?!

In these moments, we ask Doro to talk about Sustainable Business and its significance. Sustainable business is no longer ‘a nice to have’.  It’s complex. It’s urgent. Mankind is late. The effects of climate change are felt by everyone around the world. Businesses must redesign and innovate to reduce emissions. The pace of change required to meet the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) will be uncomfortable. There are huge opportunities. We can be better citizens of the world. We can have new value propositions between governments and citizens and corporates and ecosystem players. Where does the power and the potential lie for the sector to make the biggest impact on work, welfare and the world?

In these moments, we ask Scott about his journey to launching his company, The Orchard, with his co-founder. Scott talks about an incredible roller coaster experience and how he took the company from $3 million in debt to generating over a billion dollars before it was recently sold to Sony for billions of $s! Scott’s story of the journey is scary, smart and smashing (British English for terrific!)!
