Building a real estate tech platform without a tech background didn't stop our guest from succeeding as a tech founder!

Hassan Riggs is the founder of Y Combinator startup Smart Alto, a National Association of Realtors® Second Century Ventures REACH company, that prequalifies leads and schedules appointments to help Realtors® get an ROI on their lead generation program.

As a former ISA, a current Forbes real estate contributor, and a digital marketer who has sold more than $100 million dollars in products for global brands and startups, Hassan has a proven track record for building stronger relationships through digital marketing and branding.
