b'Gorny, an immigrant from Poland, shared with me a bit of his incredible rags to riches\\u2026 back to rags, and finally bigger riches story, in a sit-down interview during the event. He discussed how the Movie Wall Street made hime want to come to the United States (and live in Beverly Hills 90210), how he got started in business, and lessons learned from losing his first fortune - which helped him find even greater success in cofounding companies like SiteLock and Nextiva. Gorny also discusses Nextiva\\u2019s new customer engagement platform NextOS, and why, based on his previous business experiences, he feels the company can compete with the likes of Salesforce.com and Microsoft in the very competitive CRM market.'
