Interview with the Real-Life Iron Man

Happy Thursday!

As it’s my podcast launch week, I have released a bonus episode with the incredible Brit inventor Richard Browning of Gravity Industries.

Richard Browning has been dubbed the real-life Iron Man for his jet suit invention which allows him to fly like a Marvel superhero... but he is far more than that.

Richard is an inspiring inventor, founder, engineer, ex-Royal Marines Reservist and author who is forging a new era in human flight.

In this episode, we talk about Richard’s childhood and how his father’s premature death impacted Richard’s life and career trajectory. We also discuss how being in The Royal Marines made him a better entrepreneur, what it takes to innovate, the difference between innovation and gambling, why all experimentation should be recoverable, and how to build a sustainable business around your invention.

Richard rarely gives interviews so it was a real honour to have such an in-depth conversation with one of the most exciting inventors of our time, and he offers so many great lessons and insights in this episode.

I hope you enjoy the conversation as much as I did and, if you do, it would mean the world to me if you were able to like, share and review the podcast on Apple Podcasts – it offers me feedback, as well as helps others to find the podcast too.
