“Intlock is one of the only software companies i have seen that built its products ground-up with active customer involvement. Unlike the ‘build it they will come’ companies, Intlock has created scalable software that’s at once generalizable across verticals and companies but works as though it was custom-built by hand for each customer. I’m proud therefore, and humbled, to be asked to be on the Advisory Board.”
