ENT 601 SME interview with Robert Brueckman, Annapolis Maryland
I am pleased to have selected Mr. Robert Brueckman of Angel Management LLC based out of Annapolis Maryland as my Entrepreneur ENT601 Innovations Subject Matter Expert. The interview was created using ZOOM which worked so very easily to produce a MP4 file. The entire presentation is just under 45 minutes long. Unfortunately there were a few times within the recording where I did not seem to be successful in creating a video file. Video does appear at least 98% of the time.
Here are a few notes on the interview with Mr. Brueckman. Bob was a management consultant for 25-30 years primarily in the technology field. His goal was to align business objectives and business needs with Oracle software. He also has been in business twice before, once as a CPA and another time with a partner in another firm. Over those years he has seen business from every angle and felt that it was time to go into business for himself again.
