ABOUT US

Airspeed [air-speed] – noun: the forward speed of an aircraft relative to the air through which it moves.

Why “Airspeed”? The founders are pilots and because it offers a useful metaphor for entrepreneurism, business formation and success.

Three things an Entrepreneur needs to know about Airspeed:

You must generate sufficient Airspeed to achieve liftoff
You must gain adequate Airspeed to reach altitude
You must maintain adequate Airspeed to land… hmmm… well, landing is never the problem – you will surely land – but in what condition?
