Talent is fundamentally social with Arnaud Schenk

Bronic's What the (Bio)Hack?! is a podcast to discover what the hack security means for biology. Our host interviews some of the world's mad scientists and rad hackers across deceivingly unrelated disciplines to uncover what the future holds and how we can design against crime.In this episode, our guest Arnaud Schenk talks about tech and startups, as well as the concept of talent being fundamentally social. Arnaud has been working in tech and startups for over a decade, starting at a young age after dropping out of high school. We chat about various topics such as personal journeys, education, intentionality, entrepreneurial experiences, and the influence of others on personal achievements. Arnaud's ultimate mission is to build "Institutions of Becoming" and we delve into his new project "Polaris - A fellowship for the underestimated", funded by Entrepreneur First, a talent investing firm. The fellowship is to pursue the work you feel most drawn to — whether mastering the established, or exploring the unknown — unencumbered by institutions and the second cohort is currently open for applications & brewing. Is creation an ideological pursuit? Should all startups work in public? Is the early expectation of having good judgement on your career selection the best strategy to your road of becoming? We answer these questions and much more!
