Rick Zullo talks about bridging the digital divide in legacy industries by supporting founders with experience. Authentic relationships with industry experts is important, not just a rolodex of CXOs.
Highlights:
- Industries with complex problems need cataclysmic changes with tail winds lasting many years.
- Founders with experience in industries like employee benefits, staffing, senior care, and healthcare understand intricacies much better than a typical tech entrepreneur.
- The pitch is not as critical founders think it is. Honesty, self-awareness and having a network are more important.
- Future of entrepreneurship is more geographically dispersed, not concentrated in hubs like the Silicon Valley.
