PGH Tech 25: Denise DeSimone

It’s never a dull moment whenever I hangout with Denise DeSimone. There’s always something new cooking in her business life and I’m often, as luck would have it, privy to inside information before anyone else in Pittsburgh knows it.

If you don’t know Denise, she is THE definition of an entrepreneur. But not just any entrepreneur. An entrepreneur with Keith Richards sensibilities. I say Keith or “Keef” because Denise is pretty quiet, almost unassuming, but her business sense plays like a Telecaster guitar tuned to open G bleeding through a screeching-hot tube amp.

Listen The Pittsburgh Technology Council's Jonathan Kersting tell you more about one of the coolest people that he has met over the last 25 years at the Tech Council.
