Who Invited Abe

Business EN ↓ 4 episodes

Who Invited Abe is a podcast where startup founders talk candidly about what it actually takes to build and scale in the AI era. Each week, Abe sits down with founders building real products to unpack the decisions behind go-to-market, infrastructure, hiring, and growth — the things that matter, and the things that didn’t. No hype. No playbooks. Just honest conversations about what’s working, what’s breaking, and what founders would do differently if they were starting again.
