Advisory Board Strategy

Ask Tom Rielly and Adrian Hong (Sr. TED Fellow alumnus) about people with great advisory boards and Adrian can help you also create one.. he is brilliant. Also, ask Perry Chen (Sunny is on his) of Kickstarter. Mitchell Joaquim (Sr. TED Fellow Alumnus) might also be able to talk to you about his advisory board - he has many entities for and non profit, etc. He's pretty awesome.
