On to the next one?
This fall, I am excited yet intimidated to have my final course at the DePaul University MBA program with Dr. Chadha, the Executive Director of the Coleman Center for Entrepeneurship. Excited because I get to work with other like-minded individuals under Dr. Chadha’s watch while getting the extra motivation I need to successfully start a venture. However, kind of intimidated because I am still not certain what to expect from my classmates.
This is my first blog entry after an almost three month break from writing. I kept myself busy this summer working on a prototype of ‘Sportycus’ in preparation for an Alpha launch this fall and launched a weekly podcast – Geeks in Running Shoes - on amateur running.
Sportycus
Sportycus is the web application that I had teased about in a previous post.
Sportycus is a game data-hosting platform designed for recreational and amateur sports teams. At its core is a proprietary web application that hosts game data. This enables teams and individuals record, analyze, and present their statistics on their own websites, blogs, and through social media sites.
Sportycus will enable social athletes make their game data available to those that matter to them - a problem that such athletes currently face due to the lack of official league game data collectors and the tedious nature of actually collecting game data.
Geeks in Running Shoes
Geeks in Running Shoes is a podcast about two self-proclaimed geeks, Jason Kehl and myself who decided to take up running this year. The weekly show will chronicle our training and follow us as we discuss different running topics and events. The show started ten weeks ago and has grown to over 100 weekly subscribers.
So as I prepare for this new venture lab, do I proceed with my original plan and build out Sportycus OR do I build and grow the Geeks In Running Shoes podcast? Decisions, decisions…
