The internet is full of quick tips and tricks for startup founders. What’s missing is tangible, real world experience from the Founder level perspective, as they make their way through the various stages of startup success. What I appreciate about this podcast is the void that it fills-by featuring real people, real perspectives and real examples from their experiences that other founders can learn from. I’ll be tuning in frequently!

Great to listen about entrepreneurs and how they grow businesses

Love the concept of this podcast! I think the host, Lee, does a remarkable job of structuring his questions to invite the founders to tell their story. It’s not simply a Q&A about the company. The discussion focuses more on the story- from the initial founding/inspiration all the way through their funding rounds and future opportunities! The founders all perfectly balance talking about their companies’ success and progress with some of their past mistakes and missed chances. The founders all manage to talk about the lessons they’ve learned in a way that is seems universal for any founder/entrepreneur (tell the story of your company, focus on the problem you can solve, align yourself with the right people). I highly recommend anyone interested in startups, tech, entrepreneurship, or just interesting stories of success give it a listen!!

Excited to hear first-hand from Startup Showdown winners and their mentors who support their journey from application to stage pitch!
