Creating a Technical Startup from a Non-Technical Founder Perspective

April 15, 2022 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm

Hardware startups face technical problems which require technical solutions. But that doesn’t mean all hardware founders need to be engineers. Learn how one non-technical founder is leading a company to make mixed reality “doggles” to make special operations canines better than ever.


A.J. Peper holds a Ph.D. in Educational Leadership from the University of Oregon. In the first part of his 12-year career, A.J. was the VP of client success at a digital marketing agency where he was responsible for business development and leading engagements with large technology companies across strategy, sales enablement, executive coaching, and keynote writing.

 

Currently, A.J. serves as the founder and CEO of Command Sight, Inc., a company focused on bridging human and animal communication. In this role, A.J. has raised private equity funds, secured multiple government contracts, and been awarded multiple patents for research efforts on Command Sight’s canine head mounted display.
