Callye Keen has been in specialized manufacturing for over 20 years and will share with us how startups can make the most of prototyping and what companies should do before they start building their physical product. Through collaboratively developing and manufacturing 100s of products, Callye saw a massive range of strategies, tactics, successes, and failures firsthand. He packaged this experience into the Red Blue Collective framework coaching physical product entrepreneurs from idea through development, manufacturing, launch, and growth. Callye has presented at national events, spoken at universities, and ran successful incubator programs. He has sold millions in products and services each year for more than a decade. Clients have built 7-8 figure businesses, raised investment, and sold products around the world. This event is organized by Startup Grind NOVA chapter
