A cool story recently I wanted to share:
Back in February,
Gregg Anderson
of 41 Orange and I were leading a workshop at UCSD Ignite conference called How to Measure Early and Often: Make Data Driven Decisions. By chance, in the audience was UCI Applied Innovations Wayfinder Incubator Director
Juan Felipe Vallejo
. It was my first time meeting him and the very next day I came to tour the incubator and have since been supporting through mentorship of companies within. Gregg and I have since given the workshop in the program and in late October, Gregg's 41 Orange is doing a one day
Innovation Summit
that I would like to invite you, the reader, to.
Here's the link
and I look forward to seeing you on the 24th.
