Summary

In today’s episode, I sit down with Mohammad Adib, CEO and co-founder of Titan Dynamics, a serial entrepreneur with multiple exits before 20 and deep roots in software, robotics, and defense technology. We talk through his path from building mobile apps as a teenager to creating additive-manufactured drone systems now deployed by the Department of Defense. Mohammad breaks down the integrator mindset, why customer empathy matters more than raw ideas, and how passion-driven experimentation turned into real-world impact. We also cover prioritization as a founder, organic growth during COVID, rapid traction in defense contracts, and how Titan scaled to nine-figure valuation territory without losing focus.

0:07.2	Our friend Mohamed, Mo Adib, is here today with us. Mo Adib, CEO of Titan Dynamics. Welcome to the
0:15.7	playbook. Thank you, David. I'm excited to be here. Well, we are super excited. I had you on our show as a Titan,

1:14.2	in Bangladesh and understanding how you became a titan of technology, especially in the
1:22.2	defense industry, is very exciting to me. What did that journey look like for you, Mo?

1:42.2	And then in 2005, my dad applied for the diversity visa
1:45.8	lottery, which at the time, I think, was about a one in 20 million chance in winning. So one person
1:53.3	won, and that was my dad. So that's how I made it to America. And in high school, I started building
2:00.0	mobile apps, kind of learned on my own out of peer curiosity.
