TechZulu and Andrew Warner Mix it Up with Frank
During our last In the Mix soiree we had the pleasure of hosting nearly 500 people in our new office home and the opportunity to be interviewed by TechZulu.com while they were on-site covering the event. We’d been talking for awhile about capturing an interview with Frank on camera so we grabbed a spot in our sound studio and went to town. Amazing to think there were at least 100 people right outside the interview booth alone. When they say sound proof…
Andrew Warner runs Mixergy, a popular event production company within the tech business community in SoCal, and conducted the interview.
The combination of Andrew’s excellent interview style and Frank’s answers makes for a fun video full of info about Rubicon, Frank’s experience and what’s so special about LA.
Below is the write-up from Andrew on TechZulu.com. Give it a read and a watch
Frank Addante: Force of Nature
| Written by Andrew Warner | |
|
A venture capitalist recently asked me to help him find another Frank Addante, founder of The Rubicon Project. VCs love Frank because he’s bankable. He has a history of launching big Web successes, including L90, which went public and then was bought by DoubleClick in 2001. Plus he’s “a force of nature,” as Sumant Mandal of Clearstone described him to me. Most entrepreneurs seem to lose their edge after their first big success, but Frank’s always at his desk or out with clients or meeting new people.I can’t help VCs find another Frank, but I recently had a chance to sit down with him to learn how he got where he is. In this interview, Frank and I talk about his past 5 businesses and what he’s doing to make this one his biggest success yet. |
