Emma Maslen, an angel investor, advisor, and independent director, joins Luke in the discussion, sharing her experiences and insights into the challenges and benefits of being a director, particularly in early-stage companies.
They also touch on the benefits and challenges of having independent directors on the board and the consequences of breaching directors' duties.
