This year, for my Pop's birthday, we're going to hear from current tech industry leaders that all started out working for my pop in the IT-Lab at the Medical University of South Carolina. These leaders have started all kinds of startups, pioneered Oscar award winning computer graphics and designed the best user interfaces that I've ever seen. I believe the advice that these leaders give is so valuable that I've awarded them the rare, but highly coveted, Quadruple Bam!!!
