Podcast Overview

Recon Labs is a podcast that showcases the many sides of successful entrepreneurship for military veterans. Our Frontline Founders series focuses on technology entrepreneurship and veterans who have founded and built great technology companies. Our Search & Acquire series focuses on veterans who have pursued small business ownership via entrepreneurship through acquisition, also known as search funds. It's hard work to serve in the military. It's hard work to create and build a new technology company or to find, acquire and operate a small business successfully. What about these veterans' service helped them build and lead their companies? What obstacles did they need to overcome? Recon Labs opens the aperture for current servicemembers and for veterans, and shows the general public the power of these veterans' hard work, integrity, flexibility, and humor in the face of ambiguity and challenges.
