Plan for Explosive Growth
Keynote: Joe Altieri, Inventor & CEO,
FlexScreen
Several years ago, Joe decided to significantly pivot his
business model to emphasize digital marketing and reimagine
his brand. The results have led to an appearance (and deal
with Lori Greiner) on Shark Tank, making the 2021 Inc. 5000
list of fastest-growing companies in the nation, and a
lucrative partnership with Global 500 giant Saint Gobain – the
world leader in technical textiles. Joe will present the
strategies and "outside-the-box" thinking that led to his
company's explosive growth and how you can apply the same
principles to any business model.
