On this week’s show, we spoke with Anthony Palermo, Co-Founder and CEO @ Connect&Go. Anthony started his entrepreneurial journey early. At the young age of 16, he was already running a housekeeping business. Little did he know that the business plan he created in between his CEGEP courses would be a guiding force for the rest of his career. Today he is the co-founder of Connect & Go, a tech company with an enviable position in the industry. Connect & Go grew rapidly thanks to the smart bracelets seen on the wrists of festivalgoers all over the world. Besides being present at major festivals like Osheaga, the Montreal company even managed to seduce the Super Bowl’s operations team who looking to facilitate the stadium’s entry process.
On the show, we spoke about:
- Connect&Go’s focus on access, pay and experiential
- The importance of culture in scaling a company
- What the future of human experiences
- The importance of a strong co-founder
Anthony is extremely humble despite having built one of the most recognizable tech companies in Montreal. I learned a ton about the space they play in.
