My guest, John Panaccione is the co-founder of Folla Capital, an SEC-registered broker-dealer focused on helping Small Businesses and startups raise capital. Before launching Folla Capital in 2020, he co-founded and led a software company called the LogicBay Corporation from its launch in 2003 to its sale to Pluribus Technologies in 2020. During that time, he learned everything there is to know about the challenging world of small business Finance the only way you can – the hard way – by doing. Along the way, in 2013, John also co-founded a non-profit VETtoCEO with another Army veteran-turned-business-owner. VETtoCEO’s mission is to help transitioning military members explore small business ownership as a viable career path when leaving military service. Contact information for John can be found on either of his websites.Â
