Season 1
In this episode of the Built in Ohio podcast, we sit down with Robert Marks, a serial entrepreneur and the Founder & CEO of Projector.
Robert is no stranger to building big ideas—he founded Fidelity Voice and Data with just $600 and grew it into a $30 million business, delivering internet and cloud services across the Midwest. After successfully exiting that company, he turned his focus to new ventures and giving back to the community.
Now with Projector, Robert is reimagining how families can enjoy their home videos—making it as easy as streaming your favorite show.
We talk about:
- How Robert grew Fidelity Voice and Data from a $600 startup to a $30 million business
- The inspiration behind Projector and how it’s making family videos as easy to stream as your favorite shows
- Why Ohio is the perfect place to build — and fund — the next wave of tech companies
- Lessons from a founder on scaling, selling, and starting again
