Welcome to another episode of Ready For Launch. I’m your host Ian Black. Every episode, I talk to founders of early-stage companies about how they launched their business into the world.

This week I’m talking with Bobak Tavangar CEO at Brilliant Labs.

Among many things, we discuss:

  • What is a hackable AR device?
  • The disappointment of current AR devices
  • The power of open source as a business model
  • How Bobak gave up a career at Apple to build this business
  • Mistakes made trying to hire quickly
  • Validating their first product with customers
  • How close we are to the reality of Black Mirror
  • The power of building in public.

Sit back and enjoy the show!
