In this episode of The Entrepreneur Experiment, Gary Fox sits down with Gareth Sheridan, the relentless founder and CEO of Nutriband Inc — a pharmaceutical company tackling one of the most controversial issues in modern medicine: opioid misuse. What started as a college thesis and a dining room stacked with questionable Chinese vitamin patches has since become a NASDAQ-listed company pioneering safer drug delivery systems.   Gareth walks us through his raw, rollercoaster journey — from painting houses to fund his dream, to being duped in a million-dollar pump-and-dump scheme, and how he clawed his way back to ring the NASDAQ bell on October 1st with $6.6 million in fresh funding.   If you're an entrepreneur with ambition (and a high pain tolerance), this episode will teach you about resilience, smart capital strategy, and how to build billion-dollar businesses the hard way — brick by brick, and patch by patch.   🎧 Show Notes: In this episode, we cover: 💊 The origin story of Nutriband: from a college idea to fighting the opioid crisis 🚗 Why Gareth was a millionaire on paper but driving for Uber in Florida  🏥 How transdermal patches can replace pills and even injections 💸 Getting duped: the brutal truth about OTC markets and a $1.5M illusion  🧠 Learning to think like a public company CEO (before even listing) 🔁 Why he rebuilt the same company… twice 🧱 Gareth’s unique strategy: acquiring IP and talent using stock instead of cash 🛑 How he said no to $80 million in funding offers — and why 🔔 Manifesting the NASDAQ bell: “It was never if, only when.” ⚖️ The shady side of Wall Street: naked shorts, phantom trades, and SEC investigations  📈What it takes to build a billion-dollar business the unconventional way 🔗 Links & Resources: Nutriband: https://www.nutriband.com/  Follow Gareth Sheridan on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/garethsheridanntrb/  Watch the GameStop story: Dumb Money (IMDb): https://www.imdb.com/title/tt13957560/  --- Visit my partners Enterprise Ireland: https://bit.ly/EIreland  Azure Communications: https://bit.ly/azure EE Nostra: https://bit.ly/nostraee
