On this week’s episode, the Spark Partners are joined by special guest Taber MacCallum to discuss how he has established a successfully innovative near-space tourism business, and important points from his experience of developing it. For Taber, incorporating research, working through obstacles, and simultaneously holding a critical perspective of your business and perseverance are keys to creating a valuable business that signifies human achievement.


Thinking Points:

  • What unmet needs can you create and meet through existing markets?
  • How have you responded to or found solutions to any obstacles faced in your attempts to take on new projects?
  • Are you able to accept constructive criticism to constantly improve, or do you believe you have all the answers to meeting your entrepreneurial goals?
