Giant Ventures is a multi stage venture fund, co-founded by Cameron McLain and Tommy Stadlen. We recorded these first episodes at our live Giant Ideas summit, held at London’s Tate Modern. The Giant Ideas summit brings together 200 founders, CEOs, heads of state and other leaders to explore how we can harness cutting edge technology as a force for good.

Today we bring you an interview with the founder of Calm, Michael Acton Smith.

With over 100m downloads, Calm has become one of the most influential mental wellness products in the world. As proud investors in the company, we were thrilled to welcome Michael to Giant Ideas in conversation with Wilfred Frost from Sky News to explore why it is still Day 1 for mental health. They talk about why Calm’s domain name was so important, the role of AI in expanding mental health support, and the potential for psychedelics to reduce suffering.
