In the Lobby Podcast

Feb 22 2024 • 1 hr

Imagine ringing in your 27th year with a thrilling leap into the world of innovative entrepreneurship. That's exactly what Matthew Iommi, the passionate CEO of Fetii, did, and he's here to recount the festivities and the strides his ride-sharing company is making in urban mobility. From the electrifying games at Electric Shuffle to the sumptuous dishes at ATX Casino, Matthew's birthday bash is just the prelude to a deeper conversation about Fetii's mission to connect people and reduce traffic congestion, backed by research from the University of Texas.

As the party bus wheels turn, so do the tales of starting up from scratch, with Matthew at the steering wheel of a solo bus, navigating the entrepreneurial highway. Embark on a journey that's far from the typical start-up tale, where breakdowns and cash transactions were mere stepping stones to the sophisticated, on-demand party bus empire Fetii is today. Discover the role of creativity, grit, and strategic partnerships in driving a business forward, and how a high school friendship turned into a business bond, contributing to the success of this innovative venture.

Wrapping things up, we get personal with Matthew as he discusses how youthful energy can be a catalyst for business success, even if it means facing industry skepticism head-on. This episode isn't just about the triumphs; it's about the friendships, the supportive relationships, and the shared laughs that are the real fuel behind the Fetii fire. Get ready for an engaging tale of growth, ambition, and the sweet spot where personal drive meets supportive bonds, all while getting a sneak peek at what the future holds for Fetii.
