Sam Maule interviews Mike Sigal founder of 7 companies

Edited & prepared by Oscar Michel, Masters in Journalism, DCU.

By Sam Maule Striving to put more monkey back into business. Host & active supporter. See our interview with him here.

In episode 72, Sam Maule interviews Mike Sigal. Mike’s a bit of an under achiever when it comes to being an entrepreneur (yes, this is sarcasm).  He’s founded seven (7!!) companies, three of which had a successful exit and one with an IPO.  Very few people fall into this category which probably explains why Mike is a partner with 500 Startups and helps runs the 500 Fintechs fund for the company.

I’ve seen Mike in action as a mentor to fintech startups.  You simply couldn’t ask for a more seasoned and insightful champion.
