Dan sold his last company to Google. His last side project was Robot Turtles, the best-selling board game in Kickstarter history. He builds drones, authored Hot Seat: The Startup CEO Guidebook, and his seven year old twins regularly beat him at the game Werewolf.

Mark did the mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, firmware, and v1 software at the past two companies he founded. His most recent exit, Cequint was for $112M. He built a combination plasma torch, 3D printer, laser, & milling machine in his garage. For fun.
Tony Wright
Founder/Product
Tony has built several companies which he either turned profitable or sold, including RescueTime (a Y Combinator company) and Cubeduel (the only app ever to go viral on LinkedIn). He plays pickup ultimate, was once buried alive in a snow cave, and was the lead singer in a ska band.
