Hi, I’m Chris, the founder of Founders Grid. I’ve been traveling while building internet business full-time for 9 years (this includes living out of hotels for 9 years, which has it’s ups and downs!). Being a startup junkie, I get to meet thousands of driven and focused entrepreneurs during my travels. The blog and podcast documents the founders I meet, admire and interview along the way. As for my working background, I’ve started, invested and failed at launching several startups – from setting up an outsourcing team in India when I was 19 (success) to opening up a web development company in Thailand (failure) to my most recent venture; Founders Grid – connecting the global startup community with great benefits and networking opportunities, one entrepreneur at a time. Besides working on Founders Grid, I also enjoy shooting videos for startups in Asia and hang out on Twitter most days of the week. Enter Founders Grid: Entrepreneurship is often lonely, hence I created Founders Grid for startup founders and entrepreneurs like myself who want a solid network they can rely on for expertise, advice and coffee – no matter where we are in the world. Whether you’ve started or not, the community, benefits, blog and podcast are here to help you with all aspects of growing a profitable business – from finding a MVP (minimal viable product), to hiring your first employee, marketing, to incorporating your company. This is the community I wish I had access too when I left London 9 years ago. In 16 months we’ve grown the private community to over 770 members from 68 countries. Founders Grid is easily the most rewarding project I’ve ever worked on. If your not yet a member, you can learn more here – I hang out in the private community forums daily and hope to connect with you inside!
