68: Matthew Grimes (Cambridge) on Sour Beer, DnD Bourbon and Hype Management (GEIRC)

This time on Creative Distillation, we gather at Jeff’s ranch, where he and Brad speak with Matthew Grimes, Professor of Entrepreneurship and Sustainable Futures, and co-director of the Cambridge Judge Entrepreneurship Center at Cambridge University’s Judge School of Business. Matthew was in Boulder as co-host of GEIRC (pron. "GURK"), the Global Entrepreneurship and Innovation Research Conference, held at CU-Boulder earlier this summer and at which we recorded several of this season’s episodes. He joins our hosts to sip some DnD-branded bourbon as well as a couple of rather exotic sour beers selected by Jeff, and discuss how (and whether) to appreciate sour beer, and marvel at the ever-expanding universe of beer weirdness. They also make time to get into a recent paper co-authored by Matthew, which addresses the perils of hype to entrepreneurship, and proposes an emergent theory of hype management. All of that and more, in this episode of Creative Distillation. Enjoy and cheers! --- This episode of Creative Distillation was recorded on location at Jeff’s “ranch” above Boulder, CO. Matthew Grimes’ paper, “Living Up to the Hype: How New Ventures Manage the Resource and Liability of Future-Oriented Visions within the Nascent Market of Impact Investing, was published in June 2022 in the Academy of Management Journal.
