On this episode of Navigating Forward, Lisa Thee chats with Harrison Tang, the CEO and cofounder of Spokeo. Along with his college roommates, Harrison started Spokeo in his parents' basement in 2006. From those early days in the basement with parents as investors, the people search engine has now grown to serve 20 million people per month and half a million searches per day.

Lisa and Harrison discuss Spokeo's mission to increase transparency in the way that identity data moves around and is utilized, along with the concept of self-sovereign identity. They also touch on the long tail aspect of the people search market, including how Search Angels uses Spokeo to help people find biological family members. As a startup cofounder, Harrison also shares what has kept him going through the ups and downs of the journey from the basement to the present — including some wise words about persistence from his dad.
