Listen "NASA Scientist Shares The Secret To Business Growth"
Episode Synopsis
It’s not every day you get to spend an hour with a NASA PhD to understand how his mind works so you can master your own professional development and business growth.I had the pleasure of chatting with Dr. Alex Mehr, a NASA scientist turned AI entrepreneur who is now the founder of Famous.ai.Alex discusses the importance of rapid market testing and the value of high output in entrepreneurship. He emphasizes that answers often lie outside oneself and that successful entrepreneurs learn by quickly putting ideas into the market. Drawing on historical figures like Da Vinci and Edison, he illustrates that high productivity correlates with success.We also got into his escape from California to Puerto Rico (coconuts included), and he shared his journey from Iran to the US, and how he went from working with NASA to launching apps before they were cool.Alex believes that every human has a hidden talent just waiting to be turned into the next big thing.So sit up, plug in, and enjoy the ride as we explore the world of tech, entrepreneurship, and a little bit of Jiu-Jitsu.
