About this listen
Told through his journals, From the Arena recounts Michael Dwyer's marathon entrepreneurial journet with Pigsback.com, starting at the height of the dot-com boom in late 1999, going on to pursue international ambitions in Britain and North America, facing a myriad of unforeseen shocks along the way.
The journals tell the entrepreneur's business and personal highs and lows, persisting on a wing and a prayer, reinventing time and again until that final chance—an encore—one last shot at success.
Buckle up and enjoy the ride.
