006: Christian Almenar, Co-Founder of Intrinsic, acquired by VMWare

"I found that there was this small association based in Switzerland, the North Korean Friendship Association. So I reached out to them...I was very honest, like, hey,..I would like to develop my own idea of that place and see it...And that's always something that I try to do in my life..before believing the stories that people tell me. Try to gather evidence from both sides and develop my own impression."SNP’s founder Maureen Taylor sits down with Christian Almenar, founder of Intrinsic, recently acquired by VMWare. They talk about growing up in Spain as a curious and inventive child with five older siblings, tricking computers and satellites to watch free soccer, and how his entrepreneurial spirit has steered his personal and professional growth, bringing him all over the world, including North Korea. Think Like A Founder is produced by SNP Communications in San Francisco California.
