Ep. 934: Martin Babinec Interview with Michael Covel on Trend Following Radio

Jan 4, 2021

My guest today is Martin Babinec. He founded Silicon Valley based TriNet in 1988, serving as CEO for the company’s first twenty years and Chairman until 2010. TriNet’s cloud-based HR services help 14,000+ small to midsize companies, and the company has grown to annual sales of $4 billion and is listed on the NYSE. In 1999, Babinec relocated his family from Silicon Valley to his hometown of Little Falls, New York, where he founded Upstate Venture Connect (nonprofit dedicated to accelerating growth of startups across Upstate New York).

The topic is his book More Good Jobs: An Entrepreneur’s Action Plan to Create Change in Your Community.
