Would you walk 65 kilometers (about 40 miles) on stilts to make an impression and earn funds to launch your business idea? Find out which team of founders did just that, and about the other flaming hoops they jumped through to not only launch their business, but to transform an industry. Oh, and Doug and Glenn take on the topic of Silicon Valley's Fake it 'till You Make It ethos and the fates of some high-profile entrepreneurs. This episode is about the steak AND the sizzle.
Conversations on Startups is brought to you by Douglas Ross, author of the book, Spark Click Go: How to Bring Your Creative Business Idea to Life, and Glenn Suart, of Today’s Great Idea, a radio series featuring over 300 origin stories of businesses, brands and inventions that have changed the culture.
