The Flywheel Episode

In this episode I speak to James Griffiths, General Manager of Flywheel Alternative Data, a provider of e-commerce data. In our conversation, James and I talk about the advantages and challenges of creating an alternative data provider from within a large established corporation, Flywheel’s development through time and changes in the alternative data space overall. Separately, I will be in Hong Kong during the first week of June, so any interesting data providers there please do reach out. Also check out my appearance on the JP Morgan Making Sense podcast if you’re interested in hearing about my role at CFM and more of my views on alt data.
