Securing Series A Funding with Christian Facey

40 Minute Mentor is back for Series 7 and we’re kicking off with a real rising star in the UK Tech scene in this episode as we welcome Christian Facey, the Co-Founder and CEO of AudioMob, to the pod. 

AudioMob allows brands to connect with gamers without interrupting their gaming experience, using in-game audio ads, and the team have been on an incredible journey so far. In today’s episode, Christian gives us an exclusive insight into AudioMob’s brilliant journey to date and shares some great mentorship, including: 

➡️ How AudioMob have successfully closed their $14 million Series A funding and his advice for anyone pitching to investors.  

➡️ The dos and don’ts of Co-Founder relationships and how taking the emotion and ego out of your business relationships can help you focus and avoid conflict.  

➡️ Plus, Christian shares some of the advice he lives by for coping with stress as a Founder and CEO, and the mindset that has helped him overcome some of the more testing times throughout his journey.
