Speaking Startup: A tale of two types of retail

The latest episode of the Speaking Startup podcast is a tale of two types of retail. First, we visit with St. Louis entrepreneur Doug Spencer. He's co-CEO of Bold Xchange, an ecommerce startup looking to boost Black-owned businesses by providing them the exposure and connections they need to grow. Then, we hear another story from our Outstate series on entrepreneurship in small-town Missouri. This installment takes us to an Amish community in eastern Missouri to learn about the entrepreneurs there — and how the pandemic has driven a surge in demand for their products.
