Dreaming of Unicorns - Charlie Barlow

What does it take to build a high-growth business while navigating regulatory minefields, economic volatility and cultural barriers in some of the world''s most complex markets? In this fast-paced, eye-opening account, Charlie Barlow - entrepreneur and founder of pioneering telehealth company Health at Hand - takes you from San Francisco to Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and even Iran, as he battles to scale his startup and build the business of his dreams. From venture-capital struggles to legal threats, demoralising setbacks to hard-won breakthroughs, this is not a polished tale of effortless success, but the unfiltered reality of entrepreneurship. Barlow relates his story with a refreshing honesty, wit and self-reflection and lays bare painful lessons he had to learn, along with the resilience needed to survive in the high-stakes startup world. Unlike books that paint founders as infallible geniuses, this story embraces failure as part of the journey - and, ultimately, its teller falls short of his stratospheric ambitions. But if you''re an entrepreneur - or thinking of becoming one - this is the handbook you never knew you needed. Learn from his achievements and mistakes, accelerate your journey towards success and discover what it truly takes to snag that most elusive of beasts - the unicorn.
