The Guardian Irish Business Podcast is a tour around the entrepreneurial industry here in Dublin and across the country. We have the great privilege here at Guardian Accountants of working with some of the most inspiring and influential small businesses in Ireland and the people who run them who are forming and shaping many different sectors of the Irish economy. I thought it was interesting to talk and learn from these people which we do every day but memorialise it in a podcast which then could be shared with our friends and clients and you the listener.
