Based in Lincoln, Nebraska, Devon Seacrest is a tech founder who helps entrepreneurs surf through early moves that test the desirability, feasibly, and profitability of new ideas.

He visiting Des Moines to lead the discussion at a web3dsm gathering, leveled up with an unplanned pinball lesson, and presenting at 1MC Des Moines the next morning. We then hit the studio to talk about ways a minimum viable product ("MVP") can activate the smallest viable audience and how to support progress with ongoing usability testing.

After a narrated break, Ben and Devon think through digitized consciousness and riff on the entrepreneurial lifestyle. For companies that have technical products, we share how communication patterns help to translate sophisticated concepts in ways that will resonate. These two technologists close by sharing creative ways to find co-founders and encourage us all to enjoy the journey of this magnificent marathon.
