« How Full Time Commitment to Startup Evolves Ambition - Dan Street »

In Chapter 12 of 20 of his 2011 Capture Your Flag interview, software entrepreneur and Loku founder and CEO Dan Street shares how stopping bootstrapping and committing full-time to his company changed his ambition. The shift allows him to focus less on checklists and more on holistic company aspirations. He broadens the business model to encompass local school relationships that complement efforts at the community and neighborhood level. Street is the founder and CEO of Loku (previously named Borrowed Sugar) which develops Internet software to strengthen local communities. Previously, Street worked in private equity at Kohlberg, Kravis, and Roberts (KKR) and management consulting at Bain & Co. He earned a BA in music and business from Rice University.
