Fascinating!

A fascinating and detailed series on tech start ups in Orlando. Great to see dedicated, successful people investing their time in helping new businesses. Every budding tech entrepreneur should listen!

Insightful look into the world of Startups

This show is an incredible roller coaster ride, that puts you in the seat next to a group of pioneering entrepreneurs. I've had such a great time listening to this series and cannot recommend it enough!

App Rover ,

Good idea poor execution

I love the idea but be prepared for poor production values. Too many background voices during many of the interviews. The music is all over the place and just sorta strange. People are poorly mic'd. I liked the narration - helped to add cohesion and linearity.
