The role of DAOs in the future of work with Tom Dewhurst at Growth DAO
About the episode
This episode focuses on DAOs and how DAOs can change or influence the future of work and the future of business. This new concept is coming from the blockchain world and allows contributors to equally benefit and direct a company’s future, in essence. To discuss, we have Tom Dewhurst, who’s active in the crypto and blockchain space.
About the guest
Tom’s entrepreneurial instincts started young. In his teens he started a small venture selling child identification cards to parents and got the taste for running a business there. He studied the boring-sounding but infinitely practical Business Administration course at the University of Bath, and after a couple of stints as a product manager at Accenture and Vodafone came back to what he really wanted to do - starting a business and growing it. Ordoo was the result - a mobile ordering app - perfect for the Pandemic Age, only he had the idea back in 2015 when most restaurant owners hadn’t even heard of QR codes.
Tom grew Ordoo with the help of Tristan, and they experienced the UK start-up world on the ground and in the trenches. One of the biggest headaches they noticed for founders was finding and properly validating channels to market - enter: Growth Division. A growth marketing consultancy working with high-growth companies to bring innovative ideas to market.
Tom’s a positive, dedicated, committed team leader with a restless need to find new and creative ways to make the agency work better. Outside of work you’ll find him testing side hustles, flogging himself half to death doing IronMan challenges and occasionally sipping IPAs and whiskys (maybe at the same time).
