#58 - Swish, Founder of Trufan, on Entrepreneurship & Owning Your Data
Vision. That’s what every company starts with.
You have an idea of what the future COULD look like, and you work to make that future a reality.
That’s what Swish is doing with Trufan. Swish believes in a future where people can track their data, and take a cut of the profits that companies like Google and Facebook make off of their data.
Today’s Next Iteration Podcast ep is a convo with Swish on building startups, the future of data sovereignty, and the glorification of entrepreneurship. Tune in for some laughs and some great insights from LinkedIn’s Very Own.
