Welcome to 3rd episode of Journey to Scale! I'm thrilled to bring you today's episode, where I had the pleasure of sitting down with Arsen Nurmagomedov, a remarkable parallel entrepreneur who has successfully built and exited three businesses. Arsen's story is truly inspiring, and I'm excited for you to hear about his ventures in content, SaaS, and even offline industries.
Arsen’s first exit was Onedio, a content publisher similar to BuzzFeed. Here’s one of the pivotal moments when Onedio made a content syndication partnership with Buzzfeed:
