Show Notes
In 2011, Sebastian Robertson founded the social enterprise Batyr, a preventative mental health charity, and was its founding CEO for 5 years, establishing batyr as a national leader in innovative programs for young people in mental health. Batyr has trained over 850 young people with lived mental ill health experiences to share their story, reached 250,000+ young people face-to-face and comprises a team of over 200 people.
While he remains Chairman of Batyr, Seb is now the co-founder and CEO of BIRDI, a technology platform that enables businesses to integrate drones into their operations by providing an 'end to end' drone management platform.
In this conversation, Seb and I chat about his own lived experiences with mental health, the origins of Batyr and its development into a successful social enterprise, as well as public speaking, entrepeneurship and his latest venture in Drone technology.
