Bio:
Jothy Rosenberg is a two-time cancer-surviving amputee, book author, and serial entrepreneur who fought back, survived, and thrived. Over the course of his 35-year career, Jothy built 9 startup companies and achieved impressive success.
With a Ph.D. in Computer Science from Duke University and an early career in academia, Jothy transitioned into a tech innovator and an incorrigible entrepreneur, founding startups in fields as diverse as supercomputing and cybersecurity and even a TV production company. Jothy’s journey has been shaped by personal battles, having lost a leg and a lung to cancer by age 19. Rather than slowing down, he channeled his tenacity into extreme sports and building companies, resulting in two major exits of over $100 million each.
His upcoming book, “Think Like a Tech Founder: Anecdotes of an Incorrigible Entrepreneur,” is a trove of hard-won wisdom, with 35 years of entrepreneurial ups and downs distilled into essential lessons for founders and CEOs. Jothy’s story of overcoming adversity to achieve great success is not just inspiring—it’s a roadmap for anyone looking to navigate the treacherous yet rewarding waters of startup culture.
