Summary

Today’s guest is the CEO of Adapt.io. Sanjit Singh is here to share how every exit is not the same, as he had a really cool and unique exit. He proves there are multiple ways to have a liquidity event. As a mentor to many, Sanjit has plenty of knowledge to share. Sanjit entered the workforce in sales before he moved up the ranks at a very entrepreneurial Fortune500 company. Next he would go into medical device sales for Johnson & Johnson, where he found he didn’t like the large company environment. While working there, Sanjit spent his evening earning his MBA. Once he finished that degree, he left Johnson & Johnson in search of something smaller. He ended up starting his own company when he bought into a franchise business. He ended up receiving a large amount of money through that company due to a lawsuit in the industry. Sanjit took that money and bought another company. After building that company up, he sold it as well. Next, he decided to make an angel investment in a company that was to connect online dating to Facebook. That idea never panned out, but Sanjit became good friends with someone on the board of directors. Together they founded a tech startup called Lead Crunch, an AI driven marketing technology company. If you’d like to learn more about Sanjit’s newest venture, adapt.io, you can visit www.adapt.io.
