Reality (Usually) Bites

The (mostly) unspoken reality of startups is that success is the rarity. So, when you’re fighting the battle every day to make things work, yet only hearing about Company A getting yet another round of capital, or Business Z being acquired, it’s easy to feel like you’re a failure.

But your success doesn't have to look like everyone else's. Which is good, since it probably won’t. And honestly, sometimes failure isn't so bad.

This month’s Tech Tuesday is about the difficulties faced in building, launching, and keeping a startup afloat. We’ve put together a panel of local entrepreneurs who will be sharing their stories, talking about the struggles they’ve faced as founders, and discussing what they’ve learned so far.

We’ll also have an Advisor to numerous startups sharing his perspective, insights, and tips.

Panelists:

• Kevin DeWhitt (https://www.linkedin.com/pub/kevin-dewhitt/5/78/38b), Founder, PDO Technologies, Inc

• Josh Carter (https://www.linkedin.com/in/joshuajcarter), CEO/Co-Founder, Plunk

• Paige Hendrix (https://www.linkedin.com/in/paigehendrixbuckner), Founder, ClientJoy

• Dylan Boyd (https://www.linkedin.com/in/dtboyd), Advisor, R/GA Ventures

Moderator:

• Sara Morrow (https://www.linkedin.com/in/ssmorrow), Talent Partner, eBay Marketplaces

The combined backgrounds, experience, and personalities of our panelists should provide for a fun, interesting, and educational evening. I hope you’ll join us!
