Alex Tonelli is a serial Silicon Valley entrepreneur, having been among other ventures, co-founder of Funding Circle USA, the immensely successful peer to peer lending network. He’s now founder and CEO of Vocate, an online career centre, that looks to help college kids get jobs, filling a void in most universities. Alex is a man on a mission, with a strong passion and defined purpose. In this podcast we discuss the challenges of building a purpose-led business, how to raise money effectively and some insights in marketing.
