Startup CEO who coded his way out: Rainway’s Andrew Sampson

Today we're sharing an episode of the Founder Shares Podcast, from Hutchison PLLC.

Rainway CEO Andrew Sampson doesn't have a conventional path. He's been underestimated throughout his life, has experienced overt racism, been told no more times than he can count, and his doubters continue to believe that he can't.  And yet, he's been through Techstars, grown his team to 15+, successfully achieved funding, and built Rainway to revenues over $10M.  You won't want to miss his story.
Hosted by Trevor Schmidt, Founder Shares is brought to you by Hutchison PLLC, and is edited and produced by Earfluence.
