What started as a business opportunity turned into a disaster of a Kickstarter that almost demolished an entrepreneur.
Frank Pobutkiewicz connected with a crew of high schoolers at a pitch competition that had developed an innovative product. To help them get off the ground, Frank entered into a business arrangement that seemed great: he would help them turn their idea into a business. What started as a wildfire Kickstarter campaign turned into an eventual legal quagmire, getting accused of childhood slavery, and almost shuttering his All American Model UN business.
