Our Social Media Pages, follow us and engage with the Pill-grim community! Join our Entre Community Instagram Twitter YouTube TikTok LinkedIn On this week’s dose, we have Daniel Belfort, Founder of Blok, an innovative device designed to help you reduce your screen time. Daniel’s journey began in Venezuela before he moved to the US for college, where he quickly became involved in software engineering at one of the world’s leading companies. However, it wasn't long before Daniel shifted gears to pursue a long-held passion: helping people regain control over their time and attention in an era of constant digital distraction. Recognizing that software-only solutions weren’t cutting it, Daniel developed Blok—a remarkably simple yet ingenious physical device that you tap your phone against to block distracting apps. By keeping the device out of reach, it helps resist those unconscious urges to use those apps. In our conversation, Daniel shares the inspiration behind Blok and the progress the company has made so far. He also outlines his future goals for Blok and what he seeks in potential investors. Lastly, we wrap up with some invaluable advice for any Pillgrims who are thinking about starting their own venture.
