Check out this episode. I especially like the quote "When you believe you are giving back, that is when society will reward you back". Arie has a great attitude about entrepreneurship and growing a business. He also believes deeply about the "soul" of the City of Austin, and how that adds to the business success of those growing companies in the Texas Hill Country.
