Box CEO Aaron Levie recently sat down with Patrick Tanahan, host of The Founder Hour, to share more about his experience launching Box, and what excites him the most about the future of AI in the enterprise. Take a listen 👇
When Aaron Levie was in high school, he had a few serious passions — magic, film, and computers. He loved magic, but the career prospects weren't great. He made short films but, like Spielberg, was rejected from the USC School of Cinematic Arts. He ultimately chose to pursue the internet and computers, dropping out of college in 2005 to launch Box after a cold email to Mark Cuban led to a $300,000 angel investment. Almost two decades later, Box is a $4 billion business and the global leader in #cloudcomputing, transforming how companies manage and share information. In my conversation with Aaron this week on The Founder Hour, we dive into his early life, what inspired him to start Box, his thoughts on #AI and the future, and much more. 🔗 Link(s) to listen in the comments. #aaronlevie #box #cloud #artificialintelligence #enterprisesoftware #onlinestorage #thefounderhour #podcast #business #entrepreneurship #startups

NEW EPISODE: Inspired by frequent trips to the Sierra Nevada Mountain range, Ken Grossman founded Sierra Nevada Brewing Co. in 1980, and today it remains family-owned and operated. What started as a homebrewing hobby eventually grew into a well-honed craft, and later, one of the largest independent breweries in the U.S. 🍻 Ken built the first brewhouse by hand in Chico, California after scouring salvage yards and defunct dairies to find the tanks, pipes, and valves he needed. The original brewhouse, which still exists today, first brewed a stout but was quickly followed by the Pale Ale that would change the course of American craft brewing and inspire countless brewers to explore the curiosities of hop-forward beers. Today, #SierraNevada is highly regarded for using only the finest quality ingredients and has set the standard for craft brewers worldwide with innovations in the brewhouse and in its sustainability efforts. The pioneering spirit that launched Sierra Nevada now spans both coasts with breweries in Chico, California and Mills River, North Carolina. Sierra Nevada is famous for its extensive line of beers including Pale Ale, Hazy Little Thing®, Torpedo® and a host of seasonal, specialty and limited-release beers. #kengrossman #craftbeer #beer #craftbrewing #podcast #business #founder #entrepreneur #entrepreneurship #thefounderhour https://lnkd.in/gbYThX-Z

NEW EPISODE: For over 15 years, Amy Liu worked as a beauty executive at some of the fastest-growing prestige companies, including Smashbox Cosmetics, Kate Somerville Skincare, and Josie Maran. But as a longtime eczema sufferer, she couldn’t even enjoy the best part of working in the #beauty industry: trying out all the products! Even the clean alternatives were super expensive or too clinical, like they were coming straight from the doctor’s office. Amy saw this white space as an opportunity and set out to create Tower 28 Beauty, Inc., a beauty company inclusive of all skin tones, skin types, budgets, and beauty philosophies. Tower 28 is the first beauty brand that is 100% clean, vegan, and free of every known skin irritant. Everything is rigorously dermatologist and allergy-tested (formulas adhere strictly to the National Eczema Association’s guidelines). #amyliu #tower28 #skincare #cosmetics #podcast #entrepreneur #entrepreneurship #founder #business #thefounderhour https://lnkd.in/gRqsgwFN
