PHX Founders
We sit down with remarkable founders who are making Phoenix a top software city. In these interviews, we dig in to the highs and lows of company building, and get a little vulnerable to find out what makes these founders keep going.
The PHX Founders Podcast is a production of PHX FWD.
PHX FWD is on a mission to prove Phoenix a top city for sustainable, high growth software companies to start, scale, and succeed. We've seen firsthand how software ventures can be a force for good for individuals, families, and communities.
We believe Phoenix is the best city to start a company, with the best talent, and without a doubt the very best company builders. Watch us prove it.

PHX Founders interview with Clate Mask, Co-Founder & CEO of Keap
Before Phoenix became one of the fastest growing tech markets in the country, we had a handful of visionary, ambitious founders building software companies. One of them is Clate Mask. He co-founded Infustionsoft, now Keap, at a time when no one was paying attention to the needs of small businesses, much less championing them.
Keap is now one of the most prominent software companies in the Valley, serves thousands of customers all over the world, and Clate is one of the most experienced founders in our ecosystem.
The best thing about Clate is his love for helping other founders. He freely shares advice, mentorship, and encouragement with everyone brave enough to start a software company. He's seen it all, and experienced every founder challenge (a few times over). He's even written a book about it, which he's recently updated and re-released.
Gregg sat down with Clate to talk about his journey, and hear about his evolution to the kind of leader he is today.
