"""Nightlife Lessons is an engaging walk down the best of memory lane, but more importantly, it's a story that exemplifies positive disruption and the redefining of an industry. As a seasoned hospitality investor, I highly recommend it!"" - MARC BELL financier and entrepreneur; CEO and founder, Terran Orbital ""I've been a technology business investor for many decades and Shane has truly captured the essence of entrepreneurship in Nightlife Lessons in a way no other book has. If you want to learn about grit, hard work, and innovation, then this book succeeds, with a generous dose of humor and entertainment that won't put you to sleep like most other cliché business books."" - HENRY KRESSEL engineer of the first fiber optic laser and partner at Warburg Pincus ""I've been working in venture and technology for a long time. What Shane and his team were able to do, in terms of re-inventing the business of nightlife, is a fantastic example for entrepreneurs and investors at all levels. Each 'nightlife lesson' is a gem."" - HOWARD MORGAN founder of First Round Capital and Chairman of B Capital ""Like a delirious night of clubbing, Nightlife Lessons gives you the ups and downs of the entrepreneurial life from someone who has lived it up close and shaped its evolution for more than two decades. Shane Neman uses his past leveraging of technology to help you understand the industry as well as the continuing value and tech revolution coming in the future."" - JEFF GROSS professional poker player ""The essence of nightlife is pushing boundaries while having a great time, and Shane Neman lived that out in one of the industry's most interesting periods: the late '90s and early '00s. His book is a real insider's take on those years, which makes it a fun read--but it's also a revelation, the story of how the mechanics of nightlife completely transformed, largely because of Shane and his team. For anyone who wants to know more about business, technology, and the nightlife biz itself, this book delivers."" - STEVE LEWIS ""Godfather of NYC Nightlife"""

Author Information

Shane Neman is a serial entrepreneur, venture capitalist, and real estate developer. After dropping out of NYU Medical School and failing at his first startup during the tech-bubble bust of the early 2000s, Neman started over. He built his second venture, JoonBug, into a multimillion-dollar digital events powerhouse that thoroughly disrupted the outdated events and hospitality industry. He subsequently founded a successful SaaS business, EZ Texting, the largest business SMS software platform in the United States. Now, as a venture capitalist, Neman is a prolific backer of startups, including Impossible Foods, Athletic Greens, SandboxAQ, Cirkul, Flexport, Convoy, Prose, Kraken, Obe, Deep Sentinel, Anvyl, Future, MapAnything, VinePair, Hyperice, and Gupshup. He is also an investor, developer, and manager of various real estate properties from commercial shopping and industrial centers to large residential buildings, running a portfolio of over twenty properties in major metropolitan cities across the U.S. Although a lifelong New Yorker at heart, after thirty-eight years Neman moved to South Florida, where he currently resides with his wife and kids.
