Rithvik Venna, Co-Founder & COO at OROS and member of the Forbes 30 under 30, joins us to discuss how a climb up a mountain in the Swiss Alps inspired a major change in outdoor apparel which led to groundbreaking innovation in material technology. OROS used Kickstarter to gather initial funding and test their concept and then went on to raise a successful seed and Series A round, and non-dilutive funding from the government for their innovation in material tech. Rithvik walks us through the reasons for their success and provides tips and advice throughout the episode.
