Navigating the Entrepreneurial Roller Coaster

Monday, October 9, 2023 noon to 1 p.m.

It’s safe to say that the entrepreneurial journey is not for the faint of heart — a staggering 66
percent of small businesses fail due to the internal and emotional factors. In this talk, Phil
Dumas, Founder and CEO of UniKey Technologies, will shine a candid light on navigating the
entrepreneurial roller coaster. Phil will be giving a real-world account of his startup journey,
including his incredible highs and lows, and dive into specific examples and strategies for how

With extensive product development, large customer management, turn-around and M&A experience, Phil has been able to wear the multiple hats required to disrupt the access control space. He is also known for his successful appearance on ABC’s Shark Tank, becoming the first company to get an offer from all five sharks.
