Michael Mogill is an experienced and accomplished serial entrepreneur.  Michael currently owns and is CEO of Crisp Video, a corporate video production company that works with both small companies and world-renowned brands including Audi and RedBull.  The company produces short-form promotional and brand marketing videos to help their clients grow, market, and develop solutions for their business through video.

Michael will be hosting a session on Serial Entrepreneurship 101: Managing time, money, businesses and sanity. A serial entrepreneur is often thought of as someone who jumps from one business to another. However, Michael describes a true serial entrepreneur as someone who steadily progresses upward rather than jumps from one business or idea to another. The goal being to create self-sustaining and scalable businesses with good structures, processes, and company culture in place.
