In today's episode of Category Visionaries, we speak with Daniel Turner, CEO of TRAXyL, an optical fiber installation company that's raised over $5 Million in funding.


Topics Discussed:


  • Daniel’s early background, his education in computer science, and his time working in the intelligence community

  • How living in DC and witnessing 9/11 shifted Daniel’s professional focus from game development to the intelligence sector

  • How his father’s challenges with high-speed internet installation drew attention to a need for innovation in the installation industry

  • Why a ‘minimally disruptive installation’ method means TRAXyL brings connection to people and places typically too challenging for fiber installation

  • Making the transition from bootstrapping funding to finding success in a capital seed round, raising millions for further development
