In this episode, Gabi explores corporate-startup collaboration with Carlton Washburn, Systems Engineer at The Boeing Company, and Andre Wegner, CEO of Authentise - data-driven process automation software for additive manufacturing.

Carlton and Andre discuss why established industry should work with startups, the biggest challenges and barriers in corporate-startup collaboration, the role of the corporate champion, and what a good partnership looks like. From their experience, they're sharing advice for early-stage founders starting to communicate and sell their products and services to large corporates.
