    An Entrepreneur's Journey from College to CEO | Jean-François Lévesque (Obkio) | Devo Talks #002

    In this episode of Devo Talks, I interview the CEO and Founder of Obkio, Jean-François Lévesque.  He's a hard-working entrepreneur who got his feet wet in the world of business right after graduating college.  A keen individual with a passion for all things networking led him to partner with a friend to start a Montreal networking company called Fibre Noire.  He then sold the company and started his own business called Obkio, which exists to "Empower IT pros with simple network and application performance intelligence tools to proactively optimize end-user experience."  He has a wealth of practical knowledge concerning business, networking, and entrepreneurship, plus he is just a really nice guy.  So grab a coffee, or tea if you prefer, and enjoy the little chat I had with him in our studio.
