Adam Harthcock Q&A:

  • To pass along my recent experiences of starting and running a start-up.

  • Taking an idea and developing the idea into a sustainable business venture

    Starting and running a young company

    Local resources and networking

    Sharing what it’s like to be an entrepreneur – the mindset, the lifestyle, the skillset, the hardships, etc.

  • Taking Utilize Health from an idea to a company that not only has raised $2.2M in funding and has partnered with a large health plan, but more importantly, that is helping people with complex conditions to navigate the healthcare system and to achieve better health.

  • For the first time in my life I have found my vocational passion.

  • Everyone always says they’d do it the same all over again, but I say “Heck No!” I’ve lived and learned and could now point out choices that I could have made better. But, hindsight is 20/20. The most important thing is that you can gain and identify specific skills, knowledge or experience form each life choice. This I have done and I’m grateful for where they have taken me today.

  • Life will punch you in the face and knock you down. Get up when others won’t. Keep going when others can’t.

  • Fighter pilot (well, actually Batman, but my parents aren’t billionaires, so…Fighter pilot)
