Ocient

I recently had the privilege of sitting down with Chris Gladwin, a serial entrepreneur who's seen it all. I'm talking about a guy who revolutionized the digital music industry when most of us were still fumbling with CD players. But that was just the beginning. Chris went on to found Cleversafe, a company that turned the data storage world on its head. How big of a deal was it? Try a billion-dollar acquisition by IBM. Yeah, that big. Now, he's at the helm of Ocient, tackling the kind of complex data analytics problems that make most of us mere mortals scratch our heads. But don't think it was all smooth sailing. Chris has weathered the dot-com crash, the Great Recession, and recent market turbulence. Each time, he emerged stronger. But perhaps the most valuable nugget of wisdom Chris shared? "Figure out how to last long enough to succeed." In a world obsessed with overnight success, Chris reminds us that true entrepreneurship is a marathon, not a sprint. It's about having the resilience to weather the storms, the vision to see beyond the horizon, and the grit to keep pushing when others would throw in the towel. His secret? Mastering capital raising in any market condition, getting bought instead of desperately selling, and building businesses that investors can't resist. So, if you're ready to learn from one of tech's most battle-tested veterans, do yourself a favor and check out my full interview with Chris Gladwin on Episode 49 of Fundraising Demystified! #StartupAdvice #Entrepreneurship #FundraisingTips #ExitStrategy
