The School of Hard Knocks is an entrepreneurship media brand co-founded by James Dumoulin, built around interviews with people discussing business experience.
Explore the offeringThe business behind the name
Dumoulin's biography identifies interviewing and audience development as central work behind the venture. The programme makes entrepreneurial experience the subject of recurring media. Its name supplies a shared publishing identity beyond the public profile of one co-founder.
How the offering fits together
The interview format creates a route into a guest's account through questions, editing and distribution. Viewers encounter different businesses through the continuity of the programme. The existing profile also documents educational and workshop activity connected with the wider venture. Guest statements remain their accounts; appearing in an interview is not itself independent verification of every result described.
