EP17 Lucy Wright on Startup Strategy, Exits and Canned Wine

My guest this week is Lucy Wright, serial entrepreneur and Co-Founder at Nice Drinks, which is revolutionising the way we drink wine through their canned wine for on-the-go drinking #wineforwhenever. In this episode, we talk about the lessons Lucy learnt from her first business Cuckoo Bircher Muesli, which Lucy built straight out of university with her business partner and sold in 2016. We discuss Lucy’s approach to creating Nice Drinks based on previous experience, their funding raise and what has been effective in growing the business so far. Enjoy!
