Chris Brandenburg has been at the forefront of tech innovation, leading startups through the evolution of building, growing, and then transitioning from a private to a public company.

You’ll hear stories about how he and his business partner, Paul, tackled mobile technology before smartphones dominated the scene and how they approached app development and monetization when it was still uncharted territory.

Chris's take on leadership, including knowing when to step aside, offers some practical advice for anyone starting out or running a business. And, as a bonus, he shares some personal moments—like hosting big Thanksgiving dinners—that give a glimpse into his life outside the boardroom.

Now, as an angel investor and mentor, Chris is helping the next wave of entrepreneurs. He talks about how he’s guiding startups, not just by investing money but by rolling up his sleeves. You’ll also hear his thoughts on the growing role of AI in business, the importance of building a brand, and why giving back, like his work with the Maryland Food Bank, is so important to him.

Whether you're into tech, startups, or the future of AI, this episode has plenty to offer.
