"The Garage" podcast originates from the so-called small garage, where most new and innovative ideas start, which later grow into real small/large products and services.
The podcast covers the start-up scene of young and enterprising people who transferred their dreams into ideas and over time, with their work and effort, turned those ideas into finished products and services.
Dive with us into the world of start-ups and discover something new in the ocean of hidden treasures.
