My next guest is Christopher Krywulak.
He is the founder of Playalchemist, a Burning Man theme camp. Christopher is no stranger to pushing boundaries and thinking outside the box. He started his first company in Saskatchewan at the young age of 18, with a mission to conduct business more humanely and create a self-managing environment that fosters creativity and personal growth. Since then, he has built several successful software businesses, including iQmetrix, Cova, Ready, and Shiftlab. Christopher is a true trailblazer and we can't wait to hear his unique perspective on entrepreneurship and personal growth.
