Job Rietbergen lives in Amsterdam, which he says is awesome because there are so many types of amazing cuisine. He has always been a creator of things - art, photography, product and technology, to name a few. He finds its an odd trait to create art and be in tech, as there are not a lot of people who lead from a designers mind. He has been supporting early stage startups for the last 13 years. Outside of tech, he loves to do anything boarding, and mentioned he loves to snowboard in Austria every year.
In his last role, Job was in charge of marketing and growth, of an integrations platform in healthcare tech. He dreamt of a way to enable developers and users of this platform to easy understand and implement their system. Once he met up with his co-founder, who was passionate about solving the same thing, they set out to solve this problem.

Jennifer Pahlka, the former Deputy CTO of the United States, founder of Code for America & author of “Recoding America: Why Government Is Failing in the Digital Age and How We Can Do Better” joins the show to discuss why governments at all levels produce poor quality online services in the United States, that become quickly antiquated & cost of fortune. We also talk about how industrial-era culture limits government's ability to handle the challenges of the 2020s, the gap between the promise of the digital age and actual results, and she shares lessons from her time addressing governmental failure at the local, state, and federal levels.
David Frank grew up in Denver, CO, and as expected, he grew up loving skiing. He mentioned that Vale was his favorite mountain, and continues to love it today. He graduated from the University of Michigan, and did investment banking in San Francisco, before starting his own firm. Outside of tech, he has two kids and by the time this episode releases, he will be a married man! His family loves to ski, especially his son, who races down the mountain competitively.
From his experience in the industry and in the market, David saw a gap for small and medium size organizations to have a system to run financial businesses on. He and his team set forth to build the next generation, broker dealer platform - one that is better than they could build themselves, and better than what the large institutions have.
