Behind the Businesses Podcasts
The Behind the Businesses podcast series is a collaborative initiative between the City of Norwood Payneham & St Peters and Magill Road business, BIEcreative
About
The Behind the Businesses Podcast features 10 themed episodes across two series.
The Podcast provides local businesses with the opportunity to connect with other like-minded business people and share their story about how they came to be in their chosen profession, but also what they get up to in their downtime.
The Council would like to thank these businesses for allowing us to use their space, as well as all of those that gave up their time to participate in the podcasts.
