S01E06: "Above and Beyond" with Nick Rogers 5 Star Founder

- Business
5 Star Founder is a podcast created by Founders for Founders.
I believe everyone you will ever meet, knows something you don't.
Each episode features a founder, from a variety of backgrounds, sectors and entrepreneurial stages.
With whom I hope to learn, celebrate, understand and get a deeper insight into their world.
We will cover everything from what drove our founders to start their company, to what keeps them awake at night. Biggest regret to date, as well as their career highs and lows in their journey so far.
Our guest today, Nick Rogers is the most “experienced” Founder we have had on this series so far. He started his career in tech sales (like all the best people obvs). I say experienced in air quotes not to suggest age, something my team tells me you should stay away from saying. In the woke day and age we are living in.
He is the first founder we have had on the series, who not only sells actual hardware that you can touch and feel but does so successfully all around the world!
The company itself is based out of Bristol. It exists to satisfy an unmet need for the computing performance that powers horsepower hungry industries such as high frequency trading and cutting edge scientific research. They take the view that there's enough risks in business without making the hardware you use, one of them.
I’m hoping to learn from the many ups and downs he has faced in the last 20 years and stories which we hope we can all learn from!
He joins us from Bristol.
