Show Notes

For our fourth episode, we have an extra special guest in the form of Matt 'Mills' Miller, co-founder of global product studio Ustwo and our Pack Matt's old boss!

Matt and Mills talk about the often taboo subject of giving yourself 'permission to fail'.

Expect a gritty account from the front line of running an agency, the ups the downs and everything in-between.

—————————

Matt ‘Mills’ Miller founded digital product design studio ustwo with John Sinclair in 2004. 

In the 16 years since, ustwo expanded to include an independent games studio and ustwo adventure: a startup fund and incubator that supports early-stage startups and digital companies. The company’s driving ethos is to create meaningful products and services. Alongside designing products for the likes of Sky and Facebook, it developed Google DeepMind’s Streams app, which can be used to remotely monitor patients from hospitals, and created the phenomenally successful mobile and tablet game Monument Valley. 

Mills stepped away from his operational duties at ustwo to head up adventure – which provides support, investment and a workspace for startups at its London studio – in 2017.
