The news has been abuzz with gaffes from both Samsung and Yahoo. Whether it’s exploding phones or the hacked accounts of millions, the question remains, what comes next? How does a company repair their relationship with their customers? Or can they?
Back in the startup realm of tech, the CanCon team wonders if this whole time, entrepreneurs have been pointing their companies towards an endless horizon.

But what if there is no exit?
Tune in as CanCon’s podcast crew – Erin Bury, Managing Director of 88 Creative, Patrick O’Rourke, MobileSyrup Senior Editor, Rob Kenedi, TWG’s Entrepreneur in Residence and host of the amazing #smallrooms podcast, and Douglas Soltys, BetaKit Editor in Chief – get candid with crisis management and wonder what equity is really worth.
