Jordan Noone: From Legos To 3D Printed Rockets

25 Jan 2024

Description

This week Andrew talks with entrepreneur & aerospace engineer Jordan Noone. In 2015, Jordan co-founded Relativity Space to build 3D printed reusable rockets — based on an initial concept drawn on the back of a coffee shop receipt. The company went on to build & launch the world’s first 3D printed rocket and today is valued at over $4 billion. Jordan is also the co-founder & general partner at Embedded Ventures, a venture capital firm investing in early-stage tech startups focused on space operations, digital engineering, & advanced manufacturing. In this conversation, Jordan shares how he turned a passion for “tinkering” and a love for Legos into the world’s first 3D printed rocket. You’ll hear powerful lessons about starting companies, building teams, & how to give yourself a “head start” on any project or venture. This conversation is about entrepreneurship, innovation, the power of following your passions, & so much more.Show Highlights0:00 - Intro2:33 - Jordan’s childhood3:05 - Tinkering as a kid4:59 - Learning with Legos6:44 - USC rocket propulsion lab13:01 - Giving yourself a head start15:07 - Leading a company15:58 - Evolving and adapting17:57 - Overcoming sunk cost fallacy18:44 - Admitting when you’re wrong19:31 - Building teams22:05 - Evolving company culture23:42 - Venture capital investing28:05 - Finding undervalued businesses30:37 - “Finding an area you uniquely think about”32:20 - Going against status quoTwitter/X: @andrewhmosesInstagram: @AndrewMoses123Sign up for e-mails to keep up with Andrew's podcast at everybodypullsthetarp.com/newsletter
