In this episode, Jack and Karen are joined by Matt Turner, founder of Clownfish Events and self-declared Head of Team Flourishment, for an energising conversation about culture, creativity, and what it takes to build a workplace people actually love.

From launching a DJ business at 18 with a shed full of kit and his dad’s Toyota Previa, to winning The Sunday Times Best Place to Work 2025, Matt shares how Clownfish has grown into a standout name in the corporate events space.

But success here isn’t just about the events. It’s about people. Matt’s focus on employee wellbeing, bold leadership, and doing things with heart (and fun!) has set a new benchmark for the industry, and he’s just getting started.

Expect inspiration, laughs, and a reminder that happiness and high performance aren’t mutually exclusive.
