Welcome to the first book club review with special guest Fabio Molle. In July, we read Bezonomics, a fantastic book looking at Amazon's unstoppable rise and where they are going next. Fabio and I break down the book, analyse Amazon's business model and potential opportunities for entrepreneurs. 

I’ve spent the last week traveling around our wonderful island. While it was great fun, parts of it were really stressful. That stress was entirely down to the friction created by Covid. Wherever friction exists in a consumer journey, there are lots of opportunities for smart entrepreneurs. I break down 5 areas you can get ideas from this week. 

In this week's Idea Lab, I explore the idea of 15-minute cities and how that will offer opportunities for entrepreneurs. We also go deep on the idea of second-order effects and the hundreds of business opportunities Covid has opened up for aspiring entrepreneurs.  

In this week's episode, we learn what company is making $13m from just 13 employees. We also discover which GAA star is under fire for becoming an entrepreneur.

Each Monday I’ll be sharing a new episode of the Idea Lab podcast. It’s a rapid summary of the ideas I’m exploring and trends I’m spotting for new business ideas. This week we breakdown how GymShark has £53m cash in the bank and how being a YouTube is now more lucrative than being a doctor.
