In the exploding world of novel technologies, drones have captured many people’s attention. Drones combine ease, stability, and a small learning curve with speed, agility, and often video capability that takes RC enthusiasts to new heights and gives creators new ways to capture footage.
One company rising in through the crowded pool of drone products is Teal. Teal was founded by George Matus when he was 18. Drones caught George’s eye when he was in middle school and he began to tinker, fly, and come up with a wish list for features not yet available in drones of the time. Now Matus is 18 and with $2.8 million in seed funding he has launched Teal into the sky of drone production. Teal and George Matus work as a perfect example of pure passion driving a business to profitability.
Drones are becoming a popular trend and Teal chose an excellent product to invest their time and money and energy in. Teal not only chose a great product but also chose a terrific leader to help guide and direct how to grow in this field. George Matus is quite an individual that we can learn from.
George was able to recognize a growing industry and profit from it. He was also able to innovate and add features not yet available to leading competitors.
George’s interests in drones from an early age has clearly provided him with insights into the industry as he was able to identify problems with the existing technology and add in new features.
George Matus took a product that appeared to be fully developed and innovated it further. That is so inspiring and can make any young entrepreneur explore more possible innovations. Nice post!
Matus was able to see what would be in high demand in the future. This is a skill that separates the successful entrepreneurs from the unsuccessful ones.
