Description
Tony Carson is an entrepreneur and investor from Belfast, Northern Ireland. He's one of those guys who not only has a fascinating career, but also a remarkable personal story. Growing up in the New Lodge area of North Belfast, Tony watched his father — the late, great comedian Frank Carson — rise to fame and success. This meant that from a young age, Tony had the opportunity to get a behind-the-scenes glance of how the hospitality business works — and the chance to roll his sleeves up and work! Later in life, he has gone on to start, manage and own a whole range of his own businesses before turning to the world of investment. In today's episode we talk about: Tony's early memories The art of negotiation How to balance creativity with business And the greatest challenges/successes he's experienced along the way This conversation was done in collaboration with Ormeau Baths as part of their Founder Fireside Mini-Series and is a fascinating listen.
