Bet on People with Abby Queale
On this episode of Bet on People, Abby Queale joins host Keegan Evans.
Abby Queale is the Chief Legal and Compliance Officer at MagCorp, a magnet technology development company she helped build from the ground up as its founding CEO. She's a registered patent attorney who previously served as Director of Innovation at San José State University, where she launched the Technology Transfer, Industry Research Alliances, the SpartUp Incubator, and the Silicon Valley Small Business Development Center. Before all of that, she began her career in tech transfer at Florida State University and somewhere along the way, she became a Disney Parks expert who will absolutely help you plan your trip.
In this episode Abby and Keegan trace a career built on one consistent belief: you sell the person, not the business. Abby's decisions have always come back to betting on the people in the room.
She also shares the story of building SJSU's SpartUp Incubator from scratch, including the paper plane exercise that revealed what students actually needed — and why she still wouldn't let anyone throw them.
In this Episode:
- Why "if you put people first, the numbers will come"
- How Abby pushed back on investors who wrote off faculty entrepreneurs, and the argument she used to change their minds
- The value of becoming a mentor once you've got the knowledge to give
- & so much more
