And now, for this week’s prescription:
On this week’s dose, we have Harris Stolzenberg, CEO and Co-Founder of Flok, a comprehensive corporate retreat planner tailored to remote tech companies.
Harris's entrepreneurial journey began after a brief experience in investment banking post his graduation from MIT. He then served as Chief of Staff at the innovative startup Pando, where he gained valuable insights into founding a company.
Seeking a deeper understanding of venture capital, Harris joined Pear VC, immersing himself for a year before pursuing his original aspiration of starting his own business. Seizing an opportunity that arose during the pandemic, Harris and an old friend embarked on a venture to assist remote companies in organizing offsite retreats, eventually leading to the creation of Flok.
In the interview, Harris elaborates on how Flok works and shares upcoming milestones. He also discusses his fundraising philosophy and his perspective on taking the company from being bootstrapped to becoming a venture-backed startup.
Stick with us as he provides valuable advice for those interested in breaking into venture capital, and offers recommendations for noteworthy books, podcasts, and startups to watch out for.
It was a pleasure to have Harris in the studio this week, and without further ado, let's dive into the interview!
