This week we are re-airing one of our first few episodes with 2012 Fellow, Brian Rudolph. Brian is the Co-Founder and CEO of Banza, a chickpea pasta company aiming to do for pasta what Chobani did for greek yogurt. Brian is also one of the featured Fellows in Generation Startup, an independent documentary which tells the story of six Venture for America Fellows who put everything on the line to build startups in Detroit. Generation Startup premieres in New York this Friday, September 23rd and will hit theaters in select cities across the country in the coming months. Brian shares a lot of his story in this interview but you can see him building Banza in action in the film. For more information visit www.generationstartupthefilm.com.
