About This Speaker: Mark Cuban

Mark Cuban is a renowned entrepreneur, investor, and motivational speaker best known for his bold business moves and ownership of the NBA’s Dallas Mavericks.

Cuban’s relentless drive and belief in underdogs resonate with audiences seeking inspiration through resilience and determination.

Long before he became a billionaire, Cuban showed strong business instincts.

After college, Cuban moved to Dallas and worked for several computer and software companies before founding MicroSolutions and Broadcast.com—both of which he sold for millions. These ventures laid the foundation for his position as one of the world’s top 500 richest people, as listed by Forbes Magazine.

Mark Cuban has diversified his investments across multiple industries. He owns Landmark Theatres, Magnolia Pictures, 2929 Entertainment, and co-owns the cable network AXS TV.
