Zach Seward started Quartz, sold it, and bought it back. Now what?

Zach Seward co-founded Quartz, the brainy business news site, in 2012. Six years later, it had a new owner, and two years after that, Seward bought it back. Now he’s trying to maintain Quartz’s inventive spirit while getting it on firmer financial ground; he talks to Recode’s Peter Kafka about what he got right early on, what he missed, and what he wants to do in 2021.

Featuring: Zach Seward (@zseward), Co-Founder & CEO of Quartz

Host: Peter Kafka (@pkafka), Senior Editor at Recode
