FoundersForge posts three YouTube videos including two “lessons learned”

FoundersForge, the Johnson City-based organization focused on what it calls “underdog entrepreneurs in the Appalachian Highlands,” has just posted three videos that might be of interest to our readers.

Two fall under the category of “Founders Fail: Lessons Learned.” There’s one with Shannon Castillo of Spark Plaza, who is interviewed by her husband, Jose Castillo, and there’s a second one with Aranb Chakraborty of Flow MedTech, also moderated by Jose Castillo.

In addition, FoundersForge also posted a video of Thursday’s “Founders Meet-up” with Charlie Jordan, Founder of SafeSurv that has morphed into THEOS. We’ll have more about Jordan, a former Tennessee Tech University student and his start-up journey that we chronicled in these two articles (post one from 2015 and post two from 2016) in a future article on teknovation.biz.
