About this episode

Chad sits down with Nick Elprin, the CEO of Domino Data Labs.

You may think data science is all the rage, but it wasn't when Nick got started. In this episode, Chad and Nick discuss:

  • Nick's career, some of his early times at Harvard and Bridgewater, and the lessons he learned through it all.
  • How Nick got started doing what he's doing today.
  • What it's like to build a company in a space that is emerging.
  • Some persuasion techniques and tips for how to be persistent even when the going gets tough.
  • How Nick landed Domino's first customers and why they held off on raising capital for some time.
  • The mix of work that Domino is currently doing and what Nick's vision is for their future.
