Taking Data Science from Academia to the Heart of your Product (with Paul Meinshausen, co-founder @ Aampe)

An interview with Paul Meinshausen. Paul is the co-founder of Aampe, a startup that uses automated, rapid learning to personalise notifications and drive customer engagement. Paul started out in academia before doing a tour in Afghanistan and using data where the stakes couldn't be higher. He then went on to found and invest in multiple startups.

We talk about a lot, including:

  • The mission behind Aampe, the problems they're trying to solve, and the importance of sticking to solving those problems and not getting bogged down building stuff that's already a commodity
  • Whether the company is at product/market fit stage or whether product/market fit is even a thing as far as they're concerned
  • How we need to step away from mobile notifications being a marketing channel, rather a proactive UI and entry point to apps
  • The impact of Big Tech privacy controls on mobile technology, the impact on engagement, and whether it's a threat or an opportunity
  • The journey from academia to multiple entrepreneur, and whether it's unfair to label data scientists as primarily academic with no business sense
  • Some of the ways data scientists can build those business muscles and make sure they are solving real problems in a meaningful way
  • How a tour in Afghanistan shook Paul out of his academic mindset and made him realise that this stuff needs to work in the real world
  • Why it's critically important not to just have data, but to know where it comes from and truly understand how it's feeding your models and algorithms
  • The impact of bad data on your business and how you need to be hypervigilant to make sure you're not caught napping
