It’s understandable our industry focuses on financial metrics—recurring revenue, customer retention, and profit margins—but there’s another measure that matters: the qualities of the people we choose to do business with. We invite into a conversation that spans generations of leadership. A fireside chat between PFG's President, Jason Georgatos, and our Co-Founder, Don Campbell, reflecting on lessons learned from Don’s over 50 years partnering with entrepreneurs from across the globe. The discussion is more than a recounting of past experiences, it’s a reminder of the values we seek in tech founders, the principles that guide us at PFG and the shared beliefs that lead to lasting relationships. Whether you’ve worked with us before or are considering it now, please discover what it truly means to have us as your partner for growth. #Lessons #Learning #Leadership #Entrepreneurship #Management
