Serendipity was the keyword during the Industry, Issues and Insights event held on September 28. Professor Mark Freel shared his perspective on the challenges and opportunities entrepreneurs will meet during their journey. His perspective contained that not all firms are made equally, some good ones may perish while some others may shine.

The panelists coming from 3 start-ups – Assent Compliance CEO Andrew Waitman, FarmLead CEO Brennan Turner, and Ruckify CEO Steve Cody – shared how they are innovating, scaling and knocking down barriers to growth. Their individual experience may have been different, but the collective message was that determination and motivation were key to their successes. All panelists explained to the audience that  “whatever you do, it will be hard, very hard, but don’t give up”.
