Adam Schwartz co-founded TeePublic (acquired by Redbubble) and is now co-founder and CEO of Parable, helping enterprise orgs uncover and fix operational inefficiencies through AI-powered analysis.
Expect to hear about:
– Bootstrapping to $20M+: Why Adam focused entirely on supply-side growth at the start of TeePublic—and how it quietly paid off.
– The Exit Decision: How he knew it was time to sell, and why growing “too big” can kill your shot at getting acquired.
– Enterprise Inefficiency at Scale: What Adam saw on public company boards that shocked him—and sparked his idea for Parable.
– How AI Actually Impacts Teams: Why efficiency gains through AI don’t necessarily lead to layoffs and often lead to more hiring, not less.
