Stepping Down & Building Up (Episode 38 ft. Samyr Qureshi)

This week, Brittany and Christian sit down with Samyr Qureshi, Co-Founder and former CEO of Knack, and Principal at The Bath & Racquet House, a first-of-its-kind private wellness and social club coming to Tampa.Samyr built Knack from a dorm room idea to a B2B edtech platform operating across hundreds of university campuses nationwide. He raised from one of the top pre-seed funds in the world, chose Tampa over Silicon Valley when he didn't have to, and 10x'd the business when COVID created the exact conditions Knack was built for. Then he stepped back, deliberately, cleanly, and on his own terms.Now he's building again, and Tampa is about to look very different because of it.After this episode, you'll think differently about what it means to move on and what it means to start over.
