The Founders' Fable
If you’re an entrepreneur, you know that nothing is traditional about building a startup. That’s why three friends (Dan, Dave, and Savannah) decided to sit down and talk about the unconventional ways of starting a business. The team, as well as the occasional guest entrepreneur, will discuss mindset, advice, and startups in the Louisville area.
