Interfacing with nature
In this episode of High Agency, we’re live from Web Summit with Guita Yazdani, Co-founder and CEO of Campertunity, a fast-growing startup making camping as easy as booking a hotel. Guita shares how one frustrating summer sparked the idea for a platform that connects campers to private land across Canada and beyond. We talk about what it takes to go from zero to 200,000 listings, why PR exploded before they even launched, and how her team is staying ahead of competitors by moving fast and building fearlessly. This conversation touches on more than tech; we explore the connection between nature and mental health, the entrepreneurial journey as a woman of colour, and the kind of wins that don’t show up in investor decks but fuel the mission. If you’ve ever battled a government camping website at 6 a.m., this one’s for you.

Testing the impossible
In this episode of High Agency, we’re live from Web Summit with Will Wilson, CEO of Antithesis. Will shares the origin story behind building a platform that tests the “impossible”, from selling FoundationDB to Apple, to assembling a stealth-mode engineering team in DC that’s redefining how we build and trust software. We discuss how Antithesis creates testing environments that act like an oracle for your code, catching unknown bugs before they surface. Will talks about what it really takes to build deep tech, why they stayed in stealth for five years, and what happens when a team truly cares about the work and each other. If you’ve ever written code and wondered, “Is this really going to work?”, this episode will shift your thinking on what’s possible.

Politics of technology
In this episode of High Agency, we sit down with Paddy Cosgrave, CEO and Co-Founder of Web Summit, for a raw and wide-ranging conversation about power, platforms, and personal growth. From relocating one of the world’s biggest tech conferences to Canada due to geopolitics, to unpacking why humility might be the antidote to success, Paddy shares unfiltered insights on the future of AI, China’s tech dominance, and the broken incentives in Western capitalism. We also explore how platform thinking shapes our economy, why most conferences are boring by design, and what getting destroyed by teenagers on the tennis court teaches you about ego and resilience.
