In this episode of Tech Done Different, you'll hear from a tech entrepreneur who has hit all of the dream milestones: started a company, obtained massive funding, sold the company for over $550m. Brian Requarth, Founder of Latitude and author of Viva The Entrepreneur takes you behind the scenes of how to start and scale a successful tech business.

You'll learn:

• the framework for effective entrepreneurship: choose markets with high inefficiency dominated by stale incumbents
• why entrepreneurship is the stepping stone to success, with each idea and execution getting better due to progressive failure
• why the best businesses are born out of a burning desire to solve a problem
• why success is driven from obsession with the customer, what they need, what their problems are, and how to solve them
• the harsh reality that the customer doesn't care about your idea
• why you need to talk to your users (hint: it will save you time and money)
• why to avoid micromanaging top talent; have a long leash but keep them accountable
• why to trust but verify
