I'm incredible excited for this week's episode as we have Andrew Parker, CEO of Papa on the show.
Founded in 2017 in Miami, FL, Papa began due to a personal need that Andrew had with his own family. Recognizing the extreme difficulty associated with juggling daily life and senior family member’s needs, Papa was initially built to support Andrew’s own grandfather.
Andrew and his family recognized how impactful and positive it was to connect their grandfather with a young, energetic, and enthusiastic individual. After the first visit, he knew he had something special to offer other families with the same need.
In this episode, Andrew and I talk about the origin of Papa, the early inspiration to start the company, raising money from investors, scaling the company, lessons learned along the way, and much much more.
