Entrepreneurship, Motivation, and Media by Steven Bartlett

Steven Bartlett is a British entrepreneur best known for The Diary of a CEO podcast, which surpassed one billion listens by November 2024 and gained more than 10 million YouTube subscribers. Formerly the youngest “dragon” on Dragons’ Den, he entered Web3 by founding Thirdweb, a blockchain app development platform that raised $24 million at a $160 million valuation in 2022 from investors including Coinbase Ventures and Shopify.

He also launched Flight Story Fund, a $100 million investment vehicle that supports startups in blockchain, health, biotech, commerce, and space, combining media platforms with strategic capital deployment.

Bartlett often highlights crypto’s role in verifying information in an age of misinformation, noting that “more people are scammed with cash than crypto” and arguing that blockchain provides verifiable scarcity and trust. He combines media reach, investment capital, and developer-focused tools to promote Web3 innovation.
