Tyler Henke, Co-Founder and CEO of Ziptility

  • Resumen

  • People always bang on about disruption, and usually it's meaningless. Some very rare founders should bang on about disruption because they're actually doing it, but don't. I like to think it's humility, but more importantly, it's because they decided to go and solve a real, deeply felt problem in the market, usually in an overlooked sector, and happened upon a deeply powerful pathway of company building. Tyler Henke, CEO of Ziptility, is one of those founders. He and his team noticed that the market, and especially the software market, didn't build, excuse my French, anything useful for the people who make the small communities of America function - the utility operators. They were forced to run these systems according to whatever needed fixing that morning with post-it notes, bits of paper, and if they were lucky, a 1997 Dell PC. Tyler correctly saw the potential for an excellently designed, mobile-first, user-generated operating system that could help these amazing professionals do their jobs easier, better, cheaper, more collaboratively, and reliably. He's an amazing guy, and it's an amazing platform.
