TribeCast TRE was an independent English speaking podcast by Tribe Tampere, covering the life of the local startup ecosystem. I started the project as an intern, and after the initial two-month internship I stayed as a team member.

The job entailed recording & editing audio, publishing the episodes and writing the episode descriptions, managing the TribeCast TRE socials and generally collaborating with the Tribe Tampere team. I also designed a new logo and visuals for the podcast before the end of the project.
