An entrepreneurial venture most often involves getting the right idea at the right time. But there is so much more that goes into the eventual success after that eureka moment, much of which fades away in the background. Hear Jacob Weddernburn-Day, the co-founder of Stasher, talk about the journey that led him to establish his startup as a $12 million company.

Who is Jacob? 

Jacob Wedderburn-Day is the founder of Stasher — a travel tech startup that connects travellers looking to store luggage with shops and hotels providing storage space. Jacob and Anthony, friends from their time studying economics at Oxford together, co-founded the business in 2015.  They have grown it from the initial idea back when they were students to being a venture-backed company, valued at over $12 million, present in  250 cities worldwide. They were both recognised this year on Europe’s  Forbes 30 under 30 list. In addition to Stasher, Jacob and Anthony co-founded Tree points, a climate change social enterprise. They can also be heard on the Morality of Everyday Things podcast, an everyday philosophy show which ranks in the top 5% of podcasts worldwide.
