Description

Two Princeton professors. Two nine-figure exits. 1000s of entrepreneurs coached. Zero bullshit.

Most business podcasts give you either ivory tower theory or bro-ey motivation. We give you what actually works—because we've built it, scaled it, sold it, researched it and now teach it to the next generation of founders at one of the world's top universities.

And we’re on a mission to help you succeed.

Derek Lidow ran a global semiconductor company, then founded and sold iSuppli for nine figures. Ben Lehnert built and sold Wunderlist to Microsoft for nine figures, then led design at SAP. Now we're Princeton professors on a mission: compress the world's best entrepreneurship knowledge into frameworks you can actually use.

Every week, we bring you battle-tested sprints, exercises, and advice from our award-winning "Entrepreneurial Journey" framework. We interview founders in the arena. We share insights from our webinars and office hours with real entrepreneurs facing real decisions.

Whether you're launching a coffee shop, inheriting a family business, or building the next unicorn—we've guided thousands through these exact moments.

No fluff. No generic motivation. Just proven tools to help you sprint, not stumble, through your startup journey.
