After being scammed online for $12,000 in his early twenties, Dane Maxwell went on to launch 6 profitable software products over the span of seven years, starting with just $123 in his bank account. He started these businesses without any ideas, without writing a single line of code, and without using any venture capital.
After discovering his desire to teach, Dane co-founded The Foundation with Andy Drish in 2012.The Foundation teaches entrepreneurs how to start software businesses from nothing, even if you have no idea, no money, and limited experience.
The Foundation is a global entrepreneurial education company that has helped entrepreneurs from over 45 countries start businesses from nothing by focusing on the deep inner game of entrepreneurship. Dane fights for entrepreneurs, and believes that starting a business is possible for anyone, regardless of any external circumstances.
