0:00.0 | You're listening to the Impact Theory Podcast, your source of empowering ideas and actionable techniques from the world's highest achievers. |
0:08.0 | Join host Tom Billio, serial entrepreneur and co-founder of the billion dollar brand Quest Nutrition, on a journey to unlock your potential and realize your vision of success. |
0:19.0 | Welcome to Impact Theory. |
0:22.0 | Everybody, welcome to Impact Theory. You are here, my friends, because you believe that human potential is nearly limitless, but you know that having potential is not the same as actually doing something with it. |
0:36.0 | So our goal with this show and company is to introduce you to the people and ideas that will help you actually execute on your dreams. |
0:44.0 | Alright, today's guest is an entrepreneur and philanthropist who came to this country with five bucks in his pocket and turned it into billions. |
0:53.0 | Armed with energy, enthusiasm and undying optimism, he has proven that if you want to make a billion dollars, all you have to do is be crazy enough to think that you can solve a ten billion dollar problem and then actually solve it. |
1:06.0 | You don't have to be an expert or have a PhD, you just have to be curious, willing to learn and willing to work your ass off. |
1:14.0 | And this guy's obsessive focus on solving big problems has made him not only wealthy, but also one of the most important voices in entrepreneurship today. |
1:24.0 | He is a member of the Board of Trustees for X Prize and I've had the very good fortune of getting to know him personally and he is a phenomenal team builder and is the founder of some seriously audacious and seriously successful companies, including Intellis, Infospace and Moon Express, the first private company to be granted the right to leave Earth some gravity and land on the moon. |
1:47.0 | He was named Ernst & Young's entrepreneur of the year, Silicon India's most admired serial entrepreneur and he received the Albert Einstein Technology Medal for his pioneering achievements in technology. |
1:58.0 | And on top of all of that, at a time when he could buy a fleet of Ferraris and retire somewhere warm, he has instead founded Blue Dot Innovation Factory which seeks to make good on the dazzling innovations coming out of the US National Laboratories. |
2:12.0 | His first project is the Jodroping Company Viome which aims to make illness a choice and prove that philanthropic ideals can come in the form of self-sustaining economic vehicles that people value for their products rather than just the tax right off. |
2:28.0 | So please help me in welcoming the man who believes our only limitation is our imagination and is planning to launch a lunar mission by the end of this year, Navin Jane. |
2:42.0 | Thanks for coming on the show. |

2:49.0 | Good to have you back. And since our last meeting I've really gotten to know each other quite a bit better which has been amazing. |
2:57.0 | What I want to dive right into because I am fiendishly passionate about this and I know that you are as well. |
3:04.0 | Talk to me about millennial guilt over profits and how you see that being either good or bad for where we're headed as a society. |
3:14.0 | So the millennials is starting to feel that they are coming off their parents which became the me society, me, me, me. |
3:22.0 | And they are having that thing and say they want to rebel against it. So they want to convert the me into VVV. |
