This week’s guest is Barry Mulligan, business entrepreneur, serial investor and former head of sales and distribution for Coca-Cola in Romania. Having gained experience in the sales world and in marketing research, Barry ended up leaving Coca-Cola to set up an Ad agency in Romania which is still one of Romania’s largest Ad agencies. After his time in Romania, Barry returned to Ireland. In 2014, Barry, with fellow serial entrepreneurs Conor Stanley and Tadhg O’Toole, set up the Irish venture capital fund Tribal.vc. for high- growth start-ups. James sits with Barry Mulligan to discuss his career moves and changes and how he dealt with them and what advice he would pass down to future entrepreneurs.
