In 1996, Ari Kahn (CEO at Bridgeline Digital) earned the fastest PhD awarded in the history of the Artificial Intelligence department at the University of Chicago.
This week on The CEO Next Door, we chat with Ari about being on the cutting edge of AI and what AI meant in the 90s. We also learn about what it was like to not only found FatWire Software, but also lead the company to an eventual acquisition by Oracle.
For the past 25 years, I've led digital transformations for billion-dollar B2B companies including Thermo Fisher Scientific, Crescent Electric and U.S. Electrical Services.
In 2020, I had an ‘aha’ moment. There were no agencies specializing in digital marketing for distributors and manufacturers, so I built one!
I also host a podcast called the CEO Next Door where we have weekly conversations with groundbreaking entrepreneurs who share their journeys to success.
