Welcome to our second episode of BIG IDEAS by NEW ECONOMIES - a show where we learn how the most iconic founders have turned crucible moments into global companies. Throughout these episodes, we also discover the trends our guests are most excited about, and the types of businesses those trends could go on to create.

This week’s guest is Maxime Barbier, co-founder of Timeleft - which you may have heard of. They host dinners for strangers and are doing incredibly well: generating $16M in net ARR and bringing together 120,000 people each month. And they’ve done all of this in just two years!
