  • Limited.

    I’m a corporate finance and company valuation expert. I listened to learn about sustainable business models, which are important. I learnt very little, except how much jargon and flotsam there is floating around the topic in the treatment here.

    Topic of each episode is interesting!

    But, each episode should have a description and brief overview. And also sound is not good!
