This week's episode is with Randall Crowder, COO of Phunware (NASDAQ: PHUN). Phunware (NASDAQ: PHUN) is reimagining the way brands engage consumers in a mobile-first world that is quickly becoming mobile-only. They're also the first publicly traded company to issue its own cryptocurrency with PhunToken and PhunCoin as they work to commercialize a truly decentralized data economy. 

Randall is passionate about new venture creation and the innovative spirit that fuels entrepreneurs and advances technology. Before getting involved in venture and entrepreneurship, Randall was a Captain in the United States Army and is both Airborne and Ranger qualified. He served over six years active duty and deployed twice in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom where he was awarded two Bronze Stars for his actions during combat operations.
