Amazon started as a bookseller. BloomNation was founded with money won in a Poker tournament. The creator of Paul Mitchell hair products was homeless before starting the company with a friend for $700. Each product or service we use on a daily basis has a unique startup story behind it. In this episode, we hear from Joris Poort, founder and CEO of cloud high performance computing company, Rescale, about what led him to quit his job at Boeing to start a tech company. From his birth in the Netherlands to finding himself surrounded by consultants at Harvard Business School – Joris’s story is proof that it takes a special kind of person with a special kind of vision to create a business that pushes innovation to the next level.
