Today we're thrilled to welcome Dave Nemetz, co-founder of Bleacher Report, the sports media platform he and his high school friends built from a blog into a $200M exit to Turner — all before he turned 30.
After a second exit with his media company Inverse, Dave now spends his time coaching early and mid-stage founders through growth, fundraising, exits, and the post-exit identity crisis nobody talks about enough.
