What actually keeps a company alive when markets shift and the hype fades? Serial entrepreneur Sameer Mubarak on lessons from failure, the patience of investing and using AI without losing your own value.

Sameer walks through the scrappy solutions that started it all, from AM radio channels for truckers to early bets on RFID at ports. He explains why cash flow is non negotiable, how to spot a dead product before it drains your runway, and why pairing an innovator with an operator matters. He also compares today's fears about AI to the arrival of the calculator.
