Be bold, compete against incumbents

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.
• Non-profit: Victory Over Cancer
