À propos de cette écoute

In this episode, Jon and Steve are joined by three people working across investment, education, and business support — all with a front-row seat to the founder journey:


💼 Alasdair Greig – Director, North Star Ventures

🏛️ Lizzie Withington – Head of Enterprise, Newcastle University

📈 Julie Cuthbertson – Head of Client Delivery, UMi


Together, they explore what founders really need – beyond just capital and guidance. The conversation covers brutal honesty, emotional weight, and the power of collaborative support.


We discuss:

• The unspoken pressures of leadership and expectation

• What makes advice actually helpful (and what doesn’t)

• Why founders need space to be honest – and heard

• The gaps between what founders say and what they really feel

• Building trust, not just tick-box support


It’s an unfiltered conversation that brings fresh insight into how we can build better businesses by building better ecosystems.



🎧 Two Pints of Lager and a Spreadsheet is Blu Sky’s podcast bringing together founders, doers, and big thinkers for honest conversations over a pint. It’s not about jargon – it’s about what really matters in business.
