In today’s episode, I am joined by
Mark Wharrier, an experienced professional investor who previously worked with companies such as Mercury and Black Rock and is now focused on investing in public and private companies.
We have a fascinating conversation with
Ami Daniel, the co-founder and CEO of AIM-listed
Windward.
Windward is a 14-year-old company that provides B2B data and software solutions. It helps governments and businesses track, manage, comply with, and protect maritime assets worldwide. Its solutions provide awareness and insights into what Ami calls the problem of big oceans and small ships.
Windward was listed on AIM in 2021 and is currently valued at £120m.
Ami is a high-energy entrepreneur. Having survived a near-death experience while serving in the Israeli Navy in 2006, he has established Windward as a high-growth, recurring revenue company with a large addressable market. Ami is one of life’s optimists and a joy to chat with.
In this episode, he discusses the challenges of running an unprofitable growth company, how being told "NO" is only temporary, the importance of building resilience, and why listing in London has been such a positive move for him and the business.
It was great having Mark’s experienced approach to guide Ami through the key pillars of Windward’s investment case and paint a picture of what Windward could become as it approaches profitability and reinvests in its rapidly growing platform.
