The value of peer-to-peer networks

We're re-launching our Pittsburgh Food and Beverage (FaB) network web site.  The FaB network has become a great model for ageless entrepreneurship principles...  Start small.  Start smart.  Start right now.

Pittsburgh FaB has been a labor of love since I began traveling to Pennsylvania to help launch Food21 and grow this network in 2018.  We now have over 90 regional food businesses and over 85 support organizations in our Pittsburgh FaB network.  We are just now launching an exciting new culinary category.    

My guidance has always been that organizations like FaB should grow as ground-up, peer-to-peer business development networks.  It's what I advocate for in the book and at our new Center for Ageless Entrepreneurs 

I'm looking forward to helping grow this model.

New podcast interview - Humanitarian Entrepreneur

I had a great conversation recently with Tiffany Moore at The Humanitarian Entrepreneur podcast. Among other things, we focused on opportunities for older entrepreneurs (3:27), what are the biggest myths that entrepreneurs face in the second half of their lives (5:04), the Center for Ageless Entrepreneurs, and the importance of teams. (12:18) Among my favorite takeaways was this: "We work in teams now and those with the best teams win. The idea is ot get yourself armored up so you can protect yourself and your family as you run your business. Then get into a team. That's why we're building these networks." - Rick (11:20) Thanks Tiffany for a great conversation!
