Rent the Runway is one of those ideas you should have thought of first. But while the concept seems like a slam dunk — an infinite closet of outfits for customers who want to wear it once — the road was extremely bumpy for co-founder and CEO Jennifer Hyman. 

The challenges were epic. A global pandemic, which could have been an existential event. An IPO pop which disappeared almost overnight, precipitating a credit crisis. A crossroads when she had drifted away from day-to-day and her father was diagnosed with terminal cancer. Even coming to terms with something as fundamental as understanding the company's DNA.

Dan Porter's secret to having a good idea? "Have a lot of ideas."

His big idea, Overtime, wasn't even mocked by early prospective backers. They just didn't get it. A Gen Z focussed sports media service with no scores, and no trade rumors, and no talking heads? Short videos meant to be consumed on a smartphone? Of athletes most people probably hadn't heard of yet but which were captivating the cohort? What?

The social-media sports platform now boasts 40+ accounts, 100M+ followers, and billions of video views. And then Porter took the next level to a whole 'nother level with Overtime Elite — a league that invests in young players, pays them, and prepares them to go pro.

Tune in to learn how Porter created a thriving community built for a generation of sports fans who don't really watch TV, sit through hours-long games and look to influencers for inspiration.
