If you’ve ever had one of these moments…
-
Wasting time and money on the wrong things.
-
Missing out on opportunities such as investors.
-
Feeling totally overwhelmed and experiencing Imposter Syndrome.
-
Lacking clarity and direction.
-
Frustration from all the bad and confusing advice out there.
-
Fear of losing everything because you didn’t have the right strategy.
“I came in thinking I already knew this stuff. But I came out with my mind blown; there is actually a structure to startup building.”
- Maddie Wang, Founder of Founder’s Cafe
Visionaries is here to help!
We studied 1200 founders and uncovered the reasons why, how, and when 90% of startups fail. We learned that founders keep making the same mistakes that led to failure, no matter how brilliant or talented they were or how innovative their ideas were.
​
With the right help and knowledge, these mistakes can be avoided. There may be a hundred other start-ups similar to yours in your industry, but with this knowledge, you’ll be the one to attract investors, customers, and clients.
Introducing Visionaries and
the BOSS Framework
Building a successful start-up is systematic. The BOSS Framework is an operating system that will drastically improve your ability to navigate the business lifecycle and build your startup toward a successful exit.
It’s the difference between being one of the start-ups that flounder and fail, to confidently growing a business to a successful exit.

Who's behind Visionaries?
Hi, I'm Gregory Shepard
Not to toot my own horn too loudly, but I know a few things about startups. Having built and sold 12 businesses in BioTech, TransitTech, AdTech and MarTech, I currently co-lead BOSS Capital Partners, a global investment syndicate that focuses on series seed technology businesses that prefer operational expertise and guidance to achieve rewarding, capital-efficient outcomes.
Humble beginnings molded by struggles with neurodivergence and poverty haven’t stopped me from becoming the successful entrepreneur, author, and philanthropist I am today. Overcoming the obstacles I have is what drives me to support young entrepreneurs looking to spark positive change in the world around them. I truly believe that fearless optimism and steadfast determination can guide any intelligent and determined young professional toward success and I’m passionate about helping them make that happen.
Remember why you started this journey in the first place
You wanted to build your startup because you had an innovative idea and dreamed of making it real. You didn’t dream of working 70-hour weeks, or feeling exhausted and unsure, lost and confused.
Visionaries is designed to give you the tools, frameworks, and knowledge you need to build the business you imagine and remember why you love being an entrepreneur.
