from Ouzo Talk · host The Ouzo Talk Podcast

Drones, robotics, entrepreneurship… and near death experiences? This week on Ouzo Talk Podcast, Tom and Nick sit down with Paris Cockinos, the founder of Sphere, for a conversation that goes from cutting-edge technology to some truly unbelievable life stories. Paris shares how he turned a small startup idea into a boundary-pushing drone and robotics company working with major names like Rio Tinto, BHP and Sydney Water, while also opening up about the risks, pressure, and chaos that come with building a business from the ground up. The conversation dives into innovation, aviation, surviving close calls, and what really drives someone to keep pushing boundaries. This one is insightful, funny, intense and at times... completely unexpected.Huge thanks to our amazing sponsors who helped make this episode possible!Pryor Tzannes & Wallis: https://ptwlaw.com.au/The Greek Providore: https://thegreekprovidore.com.au/Send us Fan Mail Support the showEmail us at [email protected] to our Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@OuzoTalkFollow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/OuzoTalkFollow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ouzo_talk/

Humanizing Change Tremendousness Join us each episode as we talk with innovators in their respective fields about their unique journeys and how they humanize change in their own work, right here, on Humanizing Change. AI Erik's Podcast Audio Erik Conn The AI News Podcast where we talk AI. NEWMORROW SESSIONS - A PodCast Series on the Future of Hospitality Mario C. Bauer, Florian Schneider, Axel Weber & Dr. Tillman Bardt The Newmorrow PodCast is more than a podcast — it's a platform for open dialog on the future of our business, a platform for those building what doesn’t exist yet. Here, we share and embrace our passion for the hospitality industry, but we won’t romanticize the journey. We ask the tough questions, confront uncomfortable truths, and prepare for a future that resists easy answers. We believe that the tougher and wilder times become, the more openly, honestly and humanely people need to talk to each other and act together. We believe, openness, togetherness, and truthfulness should also be cornerstones of a professional community to develop our utopian idea of „open source“. This is a space where visionaries don’t just imagine the future — they wrestle with the paradoxes that shape it: success vs. happiness, data vs. instinct, stability vs. reinvention. Join leaders, entrepreneurs, and thinkers as they share not what made them — but what’s actively shaping them, now and next.
