The Co-Founder of Square on How Nonprofits Could Benefit from “Stacked Innovations”

The following is a conversation between Jim McKelvey, Founder of LaunchCode, and Denver Frederick, the Host of The Business of Giving.

For many entrepreneurs, launching a single successful startup would be enough. But for Jim McKelvey, his success involves a half dozen different startups, the best known of those being Square.  But another one would be LaunchCode, a non-profit organization based in St. Louis that is building a skilled workforce by creating pathways for driven people seeking careers in technology. He is also the author of The Innovation Stack: Building an Unbeatable Business One Crazy Idea at a Time, and he is with us now.
