Firstly, thanks for tuning in. I’ve done a fair few things in my life that involve me being on some sort of stage and as an entrepreneur you rely heavily on the endorsement of those around you... but never have I been quite so overwhelmed by the support of my friends and peers as in the build up and conclusion to this discussion. At any given moment there were over 1000 people on the call; when I hung up after the unfortunately convenient hour cut-off I had over 300 WhatsApp messages and 50ish on Instagram. You’re all amazing 🥺

While I appreciate Vishen and his team creating this opportunity for us to talk, I also apologise to those who tuned in and felt it was a wasted opportunity. I had requested and tried making a case for a moderator during the planning to no avail 😔 I dearly wish there’d been more science involved in this hour - I know it’s what most of you came for - but it was out of my hands. I told myself in the build-up that even if I felt like I was about to explode, the one rule of strong debating was not to interrupt anyone. I only faltered once.
As a result I, who was supposedly there to provide the insight and probing questions, did the minority of the talking. What was supposed to be an open discussion for the public instead turned into a parade parading as a debate. No data was shown and nothing about the claims regarding 10X was proved by the end of it. We live and we learn 🤷🏻♂️

As he suggested at the end of the call, Vishen has since confirmed we will have a follow-up call around the 18/19/20th at the same time 👍🏽 We’ve both agreed that the format and content needed working on and will be doing so for the next call.

It was disappointing, frustrating and concerning... but anyone who has had the displeasure of talking to me in a bar for hours knows I can’t do unfinished conversations.
Pop to the bathroom? I’ll have been thinking about it the whole time.
A friend comes to say hi? Soon as they leave: “So, as you were saying...” 😐

Same applies here. To be continued.
