Alex Abell with Lunchpool

I'm talking with Alex Abell, founder of Lunchpool. Lunchpool uses innovative technology to bring people together in virtual events that feel like the real thing. Non-profit fundraisers, corporate lunch and learns, and education resource fairs are just a few of the turnkey experiences Lunchpool delivers for its clients. We talk about pivoting to meet the surge in demand for virtual events during COVID-19, the difficulty of parting ways with a co-founder, participating in The Works accelerator at the Knoxville Entrepreneur Center, and the challenge and exhilaration of scaling up operations to serve customers nationwide. Alex is reading Deep and Deliberate Delegation and listening to the Steal the Show podcast.
