About

Tobin recounts his story, from starting a business at the age of thirteen to becoming an inventor and entrepreneur, launching multiple startups, obtaining patents, and pioneering work on the internet. Tobin shares how he turned ideas into businesses, the challenges he faced - legal, financial, and competitive - and what he learned along the way. Topics include protecting inventions through patents, launching a company, scaling up, dealing with large corporations, and maintaining the well-being of your family and personal life while pursuing a startup entrepreneur path. The book is part memoir, part business guide, offering lessons for aspiring entrepreneurs.
