In this episode we revisit our Season 1 conversation with Alli Truttmann, Founder and CEO of Wicked Technologies. Alli was a college athlete that found that many of the materials that kept her cool during her playing days could be used in bedding as well. She literally started Wicked Sheets out of her apartment, and 15 years later is still expanding to new products. Our original conversation as the company was rebranding to Wicked Technologies.

Wicked Technologies recently won a $1 million prize at the Rally conference, an innovation conference for startups. That makes this a perfect time to share Alli’s story again. Her entrepreneurial spirit is in full force and we hope you enjoy the conversation.
