Dan Petrozzo - Entrepreneur, Author, Investor, Advisor, Board Member
Veering away from formal education to pursue a particular career direction is a pretty risky move. But with the right motivation and a clear purpose, you can ultimately achieve your own idea of success. Dan Petrozzo postponed going to college to work at Bell Labs and write a book when he was 20 years old, and these decisions set the course for his many achievements along the way. Sitting down with J.R. Lowry, he looks back on his long journey of working in financial services, starting a staffing agency, selling a cloud computing company, all the way to becoming a partner with Oak HC/FT. Dan shares valuable insights about the pitfalls of running a huge-scale program, the strengths and weaknesses of being an entrepreneur, and the technologies that excite him the most.
