Carl Eschenbach is a Partner at Sequoia Capital and a former wrestler originally from the Lehigh Valley of Pennsylvania. Episode 9 of State of Wrestling kicks off the Wrestlers In Business Network Speaker Series with Eschenbach as he talks about leadership, business and technology and our current state of business affairs.

Eschenbach will be inducted into the National Wrestling Hall of Fame as an Outstanding American in 2021, although he and his fellow induction class were set to be inducted in 2020 before the pandemic canceled Honors Weekend. 

Eschenbach explains his background, his plans to wrestle in college, but how a personal change altered the course of his career. 

The WIBN Speaker Series is a new inclusion into the NWCA’s State of Wrestling Podcast.
