Disco - Expert Impact

Walter Kerr,

Disco

Met with Carrie Longton

Disco is a new venture from Oppidan Education – a live online learning platform, delivering extracurricular, character-driven content to children aged 6 – 18.

Carrie combines a great weight of experience and expertise with the touch of grounded-ness so useful for somebody building a start-up. Highly recommend Carrie as a business mentor.
