Today, we continue the conversation with an Australian serial entrepreneur. Best known for co-founding the start-up Temando where he layered a level of technical intelligence over the entire fulfillment process of goods - It became one of the biggest technology companies in Australia – raising $56M in funding, and establishing 5 major global offices which was recently sold to a $1.5B Revenue French Listed Company!
In many ways, he is living every Start Ups dream, and yet, I’m sure we will hear about the hurdles he had to jump to make it a success. Carl Hartmann has since co-founded Shortlyster as a response to the recruitment challenge he faced in growing his own tech business so quickly. Most recently, he is a co-founder of Lyre Spirit Co which has recreated the major alcoholic beverages in ‘non-alcoholic’ form. Lyre has quickly become one of the fastest growing new consumer products in the world!
“Midas Touch” is what I keep thinking. Winning multiple awards like the IBM Global Entrepreneur of the Year Australia and being an adjunct professor of Entrepreneurship & Innovation, we clearly can learn a lot about “taking an idea and creating it into a living, breathing entity in the world!
Thanks Carl for spending time sharing your journey with us…
