Joel Alexander - talking consulting, crowdfunding and the effects of COVID19

In this episode, Alex interviews serial entrepreneur and LSE graduate, Joel Alexander. Joel has built multiple businesses, including ReShape, a Gen Z consulting business which he built after watching local businesses start to fail because of the devastating effects of COVID-19. Joel is also in the process of building a social crowdfunding app which is publicly known under its ‘stealth name’, ‘CrowdPad’. It is essentially a community which takes you through the lifecycle of a crowdfunding company from idea to a successfully backed campaign.
