Adam Peruta is a faculty member here at Ithaca College.
Adam has been extremely successful throughout his career. He has been a partner in multiple start-up companies and projects.
Adam was kind enough to come talk to our Independent Media Class.
Adam talked about his experience as a business man and independent creator. One of the most interesting topics he discussed (in my opinion) was the idea for an app he and his team created. The app or "platform" as Adam calls it is named YAANKS. This is a sensory app. An individual who may be in danger is able to yank their headphones out of their phone. This motion then sends a signal to specific emergency contacts who can send help.
Adam went on to explain the potential flaws and concerns that many people have with this platform. Once he finished his speech, however, I was convinced that his idea was well thought out and would be completely successful.
