Fort Lauderdale has a fast growing startup ecosystem, and entrepreneurs here are lucky to have so many resources available to help them in their journey. However, many people don't know about all of the resources available, the differences between them, or what resources are right for them. At "How to Start Up in Fort Lauderdale", we will be joined by Randy Wood, co-founder of Citrix Systems, and Mentor of the Founder Institute. Randy founded the company in 1989 in Fort Lauderdale, and made it into a multinational software giant, and one of Florida's shining stars in the technology space. Randy will share with us his story, experience, and what it takes to go from 0 to 100 in South Florida. Do you have what it takes to create the next Citrix in South Florida?
