As CEO of NASDAQ listed MySizeID (MYSZ), Ronen shares the unfiltered reality of entrepreneurship under constant pressure: pivots that didn’t work, products the market rejected, and the hard lessons learned from going public too early.

Housekeeping carts that move themselves. Trash that “walks” to the compactor. In this episode, Seth talks with Reid (President, Nightfood Holdings) about the rise of robots-as-a-service for hotels and venues. No lobby gimmicks—these bots live behind the scenes, moving dirty linens, clean deliveries, and waste so staff can focus on higher-value guest work. We cover real operations (elevators, mapping, safety), privacy (U.S. servers, on-prem options), and why the biggest ROI is fewer injuries + faster turns, not flashy concierge robots. What you’ll learn Why back-of-house automation beats front-of-house gimmicksHow robots “tour,” self-learn maps, call elevators, and run scheduled routesRobots-as-a-service: implementation, supervision, and uptime guaranteesPrivacy by design: U.S. servers, on-prem “island” installs for sensitive sitesExpansion beyond hotels: malls, convention centers, medical, government Seth’s Companies Vstock Transfer – https://www.vstocktransfer.com/ Share Media – https://www.sharemedia.co/ Connect with Seth LinkedIn – https://www.linkedin.com/in/sethfarbman/ Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/sethfarbmanstock TikTok – https://www.tiktok.com/@sethfarbman Twitter (X) – https://x.com/sethfarbman1 About the Show From Startup to Stock Exchange, hosted by Seth Farbman, unpacks how founders scale from idea to public markets—covering growth, capital strategy, branding, and the mindset it takes to build companies that last.

Shai Stern and host Seth Farbman rewind 25 years of building together no partnership agreement, no perfect plan just trust, discipline, and relentless execution.

They unpack Shai’s new platform Gotavi (incorporations, payments, payroll, insurance, background checks—one dashboard), why AI + humans beats AI alone, and a practical exercise: create your “Life Agent Prompt” in ChatGPT to surface strengths, business ideas, and your first two hires before you start.

In this episode, we explore: • why “tell your story” is the most undervalued advice in finance • the difference between real investor awareness and paid hype • why 10–20% of every raise belongs to marketing, not overhead • and how compliance-friendly storytelling builds long-term trust Seth’s Companies:  Vstock Transfer – https://www.vstocktransfer.com/  Share Media – https://www.sharemedia.co/ Listen to the Show  Apple Podcasts – https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/seth-farbman-on-podcast-from-startup-to-stock-exchange/id1356667808  Youtube – https://www.youtube.com/@seth-farbman Connect with Seth  LinkedIn – https://www.linkedin.com/in/sethfarbman/  Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/sethfarbmanstock  TikTok – https://www.tiktok.com/@sethfarbman  Twitter (X) – https://x.com/sethfarbman1 Guest featured in this video:  Ty Hoffer - LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ty-hoffer/ About the Show From Startup to Stock Exchange, hosted by entrepreneur and investor Seth Farbman, spotlights the journey of founders and CEOs as they scale their companies from early ideas to public markets.
