Why your most valuable business asset might be decades of experience
In short: After 40 years of working for others, Paul Tasner founded his own startup at age 66. His journey highlights a growing trend: seniors are increasingly leveraging their life experience to launch successful ventures and reinvent themselves.
Tasner's story serves as a case study for the idea that it is never too late to pivot careers. Rather than starting from scratch, he combined his specific professional expertise with personal passion to build a new business.
This shift reflects a broader movement where older individuals are tapping into entrepreneurial instincts. The talk explores how these seniors achieve success by treating their long careers not as a finished chapter, but as the primary foundation for innovation.
