About this listen

In Episode 21 of “5 Questions with the CEO,” General Joe Votel talks with the wildly successful start-up genius, Jeremy Hitchcock, BENS member, and co-founder and Partner at New North Ventures. Hitchcock talks about co-founding his first company as a college sophomore, the public challenge that almost derailed it, and how overcoming it led to its acquisition for over $600M. Learn about getting started and the importance of being a good person through it all.

The two talk about courage and the advice Hitchcock gives to aspiring entrepreneurs of any age: “Get started today! The worst thing that can happen is that you get a real job!”

Hitchcock shares how important it is to surround yourself with young people who can keep you current with fresh ideas, and how Clay Christiansen’s book: “How Will You Measure Your Life” helped him think more about happiness, ethics, and setting a strategy for how you conduct yourself as a good professional and person no matter your level of success.
