Keep up with the latest legal and industry insights, news, and events from MoFo
27 Jan 2026 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM PST
Morrison Foerster invites you to a virtual fireside chat featuring Mark Rampolla, founder of ZICO and author of An Entrepreneur’s Guide to Freedom, with strategic perspective from Chuck Cotter, partner in MoFo’s Emerging Companies & Venture Capital practice.
In this interactive discussion, Mark will share how he:
- Built ZICO from a disruptive idea to global brand. Sold it to Coca-Cola for over $200 million and then bought it back
- Redefined success after the exit and developed a practical framework for “freedom-first” entrepreneurship, outlined in An Entrepreneur’s Guide to Freedom
- Approaches company-building today as an investor at GroundForce Capital, backing mission-driven consumer brands and founders
Guided by curated questions from Chuck, the conversation will explore:
- Common mindset traps founders and leaders fall into (even after a “successful” exit)
- What Mark looks for now as an investor in early- and growth-stage companies
- Practical steps from the book that entrepreneurs, operators, and investors can apply immediately
All registered webinar attendees will receive a complimentary copy of An Entrepreneur’s Guide to Freedom. Please be sure to complete the address information on the registration page so we can mail your book following the event.
There will also be time for audience Q&A.
