About the Speaker:
Damian Niolet
An unequivocal product of his generation, that of “Xennials” or “Goonies,” Damian Niolet grew up fascinated by both the “fiction” and “realities” of the 80’s, making him equal parts creative and analytical. Starting in 2004, he parlayed this duality into 10+ years of service in the Air Force as a Russian Cryptologic Linguist / Intelligence Analyst, receiving a Presidential Commendation Medal in 2009. Thinking he would be a military careerist, he went on to earn a Bachelor of Science in Strategic Intelligence from the National Intelligence University in 2010 — a degree which increased his capacity to intuit innovative, yet structured analytic techniques. Ultimately, Damian’s entrepreneurial spirit demanded to spread its wings, so he obtained a Master in Entrepreneurship from Western Carolina University before separating from the military in 2015. Today, still employing his “artsylitical” nature, but driven by his commitment to peace, passion, power, and prosperity, he aims to revolutionize how we think about ourselves, our societies, and the systems that hold it all together through multiple companies, which are at varying levels of development.
The Start Squad Academy & The Start Squad
The primary company Damian Niolet is focused on is The Start Squad Academy, a 509(a) (2), which is strategically positioned at the crossroads of workforce development and entrepreneurship. In partnership with community colleges, and beginning by revealing one’s “entrepreneurial type,” The Start Squad Academy trains the entrepreneurs of tomorrow, providing not only the how-to knowledge for starting a business, but also the brass tacks skills needed to do so, such as copy writing, graphic design, web development, etc., all with a focus on AI integration. Because established corporations also demand those skills, The Start Squad, a for-profit LLC, is going to offer graduates the opportunity to work as independent freelancers under The Start Squad brand on its proprietary SaaS platform, allowing them to gain some mileage before hitting the road on their own. The Start Squad will take the guesswork out of gig work by localizing the freelance industry at scale, by training, vetting, and curating knowledge skill freelancers in every metropolitan area in the US.
