When you ask Alexi Venneri about the challenges she's had while building Digital Air Strike, a multimillion dollar tech company, she answers using with an iteration of one of the quintessential interview answers: “Our challenges have become our strengths.” But the thing is, she really means it. Alexi loves her company and team, whom she says are like family. And she believes in treating them actually even better than most of us treat our own families. She's renting islands, for example. 

Hamid talks to Alexi about how she grew her business from her kitchen, how she had to leave a board meeting to feed her premature baby and her love for Richard Branson.
