The story of what happens when a group of software engineers get together, nagging your parents to buy you that first Commodore 64, hiring someone away from Steve Jobs, parental expectations, how to grow a start-up into an international company and whether or not the Toronto Raptors actually play basketball in Toronto (this year, anyway). Travis chats with Bobby John, founder of Band of Coders, a custom software engineering company, with offices across North America, and Argentina.
Bobby John is a serial entrepreneur and mentor to startups. While in university, he founded a highly capitalized boutique software development firm and later went on to become CTO of Trade Settlement Inc., Wall Street’s leader in post-trade loan settlement processing.

Bobby regularly mentors dozens of young founders worldwide. His motto is: “I always have an ear for somebody who has a dream to build something.”
