Top Mentor Talk
Phil Libin, CEO of Evernote, is a top-rated Mentor at the Founder Institute. In the video below, Phil delivers his Institute presentation on revenue in the public Founder Showcase event. Like many of the top-rated mentors, Phil shares details of his business that are normally private for the benefit of Founders enrolled in the Institute. The video is a great example of weekly Institute talks.
Founder Showcase - Phil Libin Keynote
Phil decided to make his Institute presentation public in an effort to encourage other fast growth companies to share their data and help new companies avoid deadly mistakes. After delivering the talk, Phil said, "I wish that I had data like this when growing Evernote, as it would have made my life a lot easier."
All Mentor videos from the talks worldwide are available for enrolled Founders and Graduates. Phil will be Mentoring in Silicon Valley (apply here) and Boston (apply here), both locations have applications due in the near future.
