Scott Milener is the Co-Founder and CEO of IntroSnap, a company whose clients can be a force for good and do business simultaneously. With IntroSnap, individuals can offer charitable donations in exchange for 30 minutes speaking to professionals and experts in various industries. 

Outbound lead generation is broken. Too many thoughtless emails that don't resonate with prospects. Too high a cost per opportunity. Too many tools in the stack that aren't working. IntroSnap.com provides a way to book meetings faster and cheaper while supporting global causes important to your invitees. Anyone can use it; no SaaS license needed. You place a meeting request with a donation offer to their charity of choice and only pay it if the meeting is completed. Rise above the noise by showing you care about what they care about.

Tony Zorc is the CEO and Founder of Accounting Seed. Accounting Seed provides accounting and finance technology solutions on the Force.com Platform. We are the fusion of two disciplines: Information Technology and Accounting. We design, implement, support and streamline the best accounting system solutions for our client’s unique needs.

Long before he began Accounting Seed in 2008, Tony was an excellent gymnast who competed in all six events in men’s artistic gymnastics. At the vault, the rings, and the high bar, Tony excelled. The pommel horse, on the other hand, was a challenge—one that taught him a lesson that he uses in his business to this day: Hone your strengths, but still work on improving your skill gaps.

Tony's hard work paid off when he won the Illinois High School Gymnastic Coaches Association (IHSGCA) Senior Gymnast of the Year Award in 1992, in addition to be a state champion gymnast.

Tony Zorc is also the author of the book called ‘Iconoclasm - A survival guide in the post pandemic economy.’ You can get copy of the book at the following:

Jason Voiovich is a portfolio career professional and is known to carry different kinds of mantles. For some, he is known as the Fractional Chief Marketing Officer for Vojvdec & Sigma. For others, he is a User Experience Consultant at Agent Zero: Mission X. For many, he is a Coach at Voyageur U. 

With a career that spans more than 25 years, Jason is known to be the person behind the launching of hundreds of new products from medical devices, to virtual healthcare systems, to non-dairy consumer cheese, to next-generation alternatives, to the dreaded “cone of shame” for pets, and all the way to sex aides for cows. 

A holder of a Bachelor’s Degree from University of Wisconsin and Masters from University of Minnesota, with a completed Post-Graduate studies at the MIT Sloan School of Management, Jason’s formal training is considered invaluable but the real credit to his success is having to grow up in a family of artists, immigrants, and entrepreneurs. That taught him to carefully observe the world, see patterns before others notice them, and use those insights to create new innovations. 

Having history as his favorite way to observe the world, he is one of the firm believers that the people nowadays have a lot to learn about the challenges and opportunities from people of the past.
