Part of the Innovate New Albany TIGER Talks Series:
Hear from two college-aged entrepreneurs who have founded extremely different businesses and and who are following strikingly different paths to success.
David Butcher, founder of FlyBy BBQ, will be providing lunch courtesy of his new fast casual restaurant business. Among many other topics, David will explain how continuing college is unlocking doors for his startup every day.
Claire Coder, founder of Aunt Flow, an ambitious new social enterprise, will share her success story. Among the many topics Claire will cover, she will be explaining how her decision to leave college and pursue entrepreneurship on a full time basis was the best path for her.
Plus: Rumor has it that we will have some T-Shirts and other branded swag to give away!
Claire Coder is the founder and CEO of Aunt Flow. Committed to eliminating the taboo surrounding menstruation and to provide feminine hygiene products to women in need, Coder founded this social enterprise. After starting her first business at age 16 and exiting just two years later, Coder was named to the top 100 Young Entrepreneurs by NFIB in 2014. In 2015 she was recognized as a Top 5 Young Entrepreneurial Mind in Columbus by Global Student Entrepreneur Awards. With her new enterprise, the 19-year-old is determined to have feminine hygiene products in every bathroom in the United States… and to be on Ellen.
David Butcher is the founder of Flyby. After successfully building several small businesses as a teenager, David is using entrepreneurship to get back to his heritage and namesake: meat. Flyby serves interactive “production line” BBQ sandwiches featuring regional American flavors. His mission is to simplify and enrich the BBQ eating experience, changing the rapidly growing fast casual market forever. David is an Innovation, Creativity, Entrepreneurship Scholar at The Ohio State University.
