How Micah Brown Sold Two Companies And Started A Neuroscience Fund – Part II
Entrepreneurship is almost never a straight line. Much of the experience is unpredictable, and while you can usually weave together a cohesive story of how a successful business was able to get there, in the moment it's anything but cohesive. This is why Reid Hoffman, the founder of LinkedIn, is famous for saying that "an entrepreneur is someone who will jump off a cliff and assemble an airplane on the way down." In Part 2 of our interview with Micah Brown, he details how he went from having incredible momentum in his business, to nearing the brink of failure on more than one occasion. In each example, persistence and continued execution is what kept him afloat, allowing him to survive until a lifeline seemingly came out of nowhere to keep his business moving forward. We also discuss the work that Micah is doing to develop highly technical talent, focusing on building out their communication skills to teach them how to turn complicated ideas into massive, fundable opportunities.
