[11] NUMAAN AKRAM: Can you Uber a Bus? Yes, but not from Uber.

"Raised as an entrepreneur, schooled as a scientist, developer by trade, and Founder at heart."

Numaan's earliest memories are of spending time in the back of my father's electronic store; playing with the credit card machine and testing what he sold; a VCR, an Atari game, and even a computer... Having grown up in an immigrant family, I always knew I wanted to be an entrepreneur." 

My dad told me, "business is common sense" now go get a real degree. 

Numaan got a degree in computer science, fell in love with coding, and soon started his own development shop. "I loved making software but I was also a developer that could actually talk to executives. "

Then in 2010, the Rally to Restore Sanity, organized by John Stewart and Stephen Kolbert, planted the seed for entrepreneurial success. 

Find out how Numaan's crowdsourcing buses for events solved a common problem while also creating a  way for owners of buses ( typically small family-owned businesses) to grow as well.
