Meet Nicholas "Nick" Stone. Nick is the Chief Executive Officer and Founder of Bluestone Lane, the Australian-inspired specialty coffee and lifestyle brand with 55+ units across the U.S. and growing. A native of Melbourne, Australia, Nick envisioned Bluestone Lane to provide the premium coffee and cafe experience readily found in his hometown but lacking in the U.S. Nick started Bluestone Lane in 2013 in New York City, and, three years later in mid-2016, he left his career in corporate finance to serve as the full-time CEO. Prior to commencing his career in corporate finance, Nick was a professional Australian Rules Football (AFL) player for 6 seasons. Nick has drawn upon his experience in elite sports and investment banking to build a lifestyle brand that is known for its premium in-store experiences, product and technological innovation, high-growth and strategic partnerships (including most recently announced with Hilton). In 2019, Nick was selected as a Finalist in EY’s Entrepreneur of Year New York. #entrepreneurship #founder #startups Missed any previous #ThisWeekWithSabir episodes, access all here https://growthbysabir.com/liveshow Your business stuck in a rut?
