The Entrepreneur's Entrepreneur: Nick Tippman of TipTop VC

Nick Tippmann has spent his career building — as a founder, marketer, CMO, and now venture capitalist at TipTop Ventures. But when asked about the best job he’s ever had, he points to his time helping build Greenlight Guru, a mission-driven software company serving medical device companies.In this episode, Nick shares why the best work often comes from a rare combination: doing hard things, with people you trust, in service of a mission that matters. He talks about dropping out of college to teach himself startups and venture capital, joining Greenlight Guru as an early employee, growing into the CMO role, building a high-retention culture, and eventually making the leap into venture capital.We also get into what entrepreneurship really requires, why grit matters more than most people think, how to find the right people to build with, and why Nick believes the future of software is vertical.Links: Nick's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nicktippmann/TipTop VC: https://www.tiptop.vc/The Best Job I've Ever Had: bestjobever.org

Curiosity, Tenacity, Hustle: Lessons from Peter Szabo's journey from radio to tech & music exec

I talk with music and tech executive Peter Szabo. Peter has had a front-row seat to the transformation of the music industry. Peter Szabo started at KISS 108, an iconic Boston radio station, during the internet's earliest days. His job was to post pictures and videos of bands like Backstreet Boys, Jay-Z, and Dave Matthews Band. Without knowing it, Peter was at the forefront of shaping how we’d all soon connect with music online. From there, he stepped into leadership roles at companies that completely changed the music landscape: Pandora, Shazam, and Spotify. And now with his own company, “The Idea Factory,” he is helping artists and brands harness the power of authentic partnerships. Like the ones where the artist actually enjoys the product – From the Struts to Train. But beyond his impressive resume, Peter brings deep insights about the human side of success—how curiosity and tenacity drive innovation, why great leaders prioritize kindness, and how a single generous act from a boss can leave a lifelong impact, especially during a crisis.
