About this Podcast:
The Center for Entrepreneurship at Wake Forest University presents interviews with entrepreneurs who tell the story of what brought their idea to life. They share the moments when they thought that the whole thing might fall apart, and the moments when they knew that they had a “winner.” Through their conversations with Justin Catanoso we learn how who they are, as Innovators, impacts what they create.
