Fireside Chat with Sharon K. Gillenwater
Building and Selling a $25 Million Dollar Tech Company
Join us for a private fireside chat with tech founder and entrepreneur Sharon K. Gillenwater, who went from waitress to CEO and selling her company for $25 million without compromising her integrity. She'll be sharing her insights, best practices, and more with a private group as she passes through San Diego. Space is limited and RSVPs are guaranteed a seat!
Sharon, who grew her company Boardroom Insiders, Inc. to a $25 million exit without losing her soul, will share her journey and secrets from her book "Scaling With Soul: How I Built & Sold a $25 Million Tech Company Without Being an A**hole." This is a unique opportunity to learn from her experiences, get inspired, and understand the nuances of scaling a company with integrity. Don’t miss this chance to connect with like-minded entrepreneurs and gain valuable insights into creating successful and soul-aligned enterprises. Bring your questions, network with fellow attendees, and let Sharon’s journey inspire your own entrepreneurial dreams.
This is a private event, and seats are quite limited! Please RSVP to guarantee your seat!
