Steven Bartlett, host of the most listened to podcast in Europe, will participate in South Summit Madrid 2024

British entrepreneur and podcaster Steven Bartlett will participate in South Summit Madrid 2024, the leading meeting of the global ecosystem of entrepreneurship and innovation co-organised with IE University, to be held between June 5th and 7th in Madrid.  

Steven is known worldwide for being the host of 'The Diary of a CEO', the most listened to podcast in Europe and the ninth in the world according to Spotify. In this space, the entrepreneur talks to the world's most influential leaders and experts to share their stories, offer a new perspective on their successes, and offer the best leadership and entrepreneurship advice to the audience of his show, which has already exceeded 10 million monthly downloads. His recognition in the UK is that Bartlett has partnered with His Majesty’s Prison Service to distribute his podcast to prisoners to inspire them.

In addition to being a podcaster and successful entrepreneur, Steven Bartlett is a recognised investor in the entrepreneurial ecosystem, within the health and wellness sector. His investments include Huel, the fastest-growing international eCommerce company in the UK, and ZOE, a personalised nutrition programme supported by expert scientists and nutritionists.

Steven is also the founder of the marketing and communications agency Flight Story, as well as the creator of his own investment fund Flight Fund, which aims to help the next generation of European unicorns. He is also co-founder of the software platform Thirdweb, which facilitates the creation of web3 applications, as well as the author of several books such as the bestseller 'The Diary of a CEO: The 33 Laws of Business and Life' or 'Happy Sexy Millionaire'.

In both his podcast and books, Steven focuses his advice on inspiring a new generation of entrepreneurs and creators and helping disadvantaged schools and communities. This has led to him winning the 'British Black Entrepreneur of the Year' award and being included in the Powerlist list, which recognises the achievements of the UK's most influential people of African, Afro-Caribbean and African American descent.

Steven will be one of the main speakers at the twelfth edition of South Summit Madrid. With the slogan "Human By Design", South Summit Madrid 2024 will bring together the main actors and experts of the entrepreneurial and innovative ecosystem worldwide to respond to the challenges posed by the new technological era: how to what extent new technologies condition the definition of the human being and how innovations can help improve the quality of life of humanity.

In its previous edition, South Summit Madrid brought together 20,000 attendees from the international entrepreneurial and innovative ecosystem at La Nave. Of these, 6,500 were entrepreneurs, 2,000 investors with an investment portfolio of more than $326 billion and 650 were top-level speakers.
