About Bart Foster
I am the founder of BusinessOutside. We partner with companies striving to create elite teams & maximize performance. We also create unique and customized retreats for Corporate Executives, YPO Forums, Board of Directors, etc. I have experience leading public and private companies in the U.S. and Europe, both as an entrepreneur and intrapreneur; with a focus on innovation at the intersection of: consumer, technology & retail. I work to bridge the gap between large multinational companies that want to be more innovative, and early-stage ventures that need the resources, capital and expertise of the large corporations. While working at Novartis I was recognized as the Entrepreneur of the Year for developing a new business venture, which became SoloHealth (now Pursuant Health). Prior to working at Novartis I was a Director for Peachtree Network, a successful Internet start-up based in Montreal, Canada. While there, the Company had an IPO on the Canadian Venture Exchange. I began my career with Kellogg’s in consumer marketing and sales. I am a Father, Husband, IRONMAN Triathlete, Florida Gator and active in Young Presidents Organization (YPO). My wife Aly and I have two kids and I enjoy all things outdoors: Hiking, Cycling, backcountry skiing, open water swimming.
