Come hear a Jacksonville tech leader's story.About this EventThe summer series rolls on, and we're keeping the conversations local and the insights big. Join us for a live fireside chat with Kelly Dyer, a serial entrepreneur, technologist, and one of the driving forces behind Jacksonville's tech community.Kelly's been building for more than two decades. He's the Co-Founder and CEO of SourceFuse, a cloud-native software and product development firm that's landed on the Inc. 5000 list of fastest-growing companies multiple times. Before that, he founded Inventory Source, an e-commerce SaaS platform that automates orders and inventory for retailers and distributors — a company he's still involved with today. And in 2015, he founded the Jax Tech Group, building one of the region's most active networking communities for technologists, founders, and innovators.With a Computer Science and Economics background and an MBA from Duke's Fuqua School of Business, Kelly has spent his career identifying hard problems and solving them with software. In this conversation, we'll get into what it really takes to build and scale companies over the long haul — finding the right people and putting them in the right seats, knowing when to make a decision and when to wait, learning more from the mistakes than the wins, and staying current in an industry where you either keep learning or get left behind.Whether you're a founder, an operator, a job seeker, or someone curious about Jacksonville's growing tech scene, you'll walk away with hard-won perspective from someone who's done it more than once. Bring your questions — this is a fireside chat, not a lecture.Seats are limited. Grab yours and come be part of the conversation.Agenda?: 05:30 PM - 06:00 PMNetworking ?: 06:00 PM - 07:00 PMFireside chat with Kelly?: 07:00 PM - 08:00 PMQ&A and Closing Networking - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/jacksonville-beach/fireside-chat-with-special-guest-kelly-dyer-founder-of-sourcefuse/100001990807270136 - **Event Categories**: business, science-fair - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 - **Event Highlights**: - Duration: 2 hours 30 minutes - Location: 1250 Shetter Ave - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Jacksonville Beach - **state**: FL - **country**: United States - **location**: 1250 Shetter Ave - **lat**: 30.2861958 - **long**: -81.4015623 - **full address**: 1250 Shetter Ave, 1250 Shetter Avenue, Jacksonville Beach, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Fireside Chat with Special Guest, Kelly Dyer, Founder of Sourcefuse - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events4/banners/678b001ee38f9cf78928c2b44c046d8e59583cc65367be925f7916ca66d9f51c-rimg-w1080-h1080-dc102c33-gmir.jpg?v=1780824245 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Fireside Chat with Special Guest, Kelly Dyer, Founder of Sourcefuse being held? - **A:** Fireside Chat with Special Guest, Kelly Dyer, Founder of Sourcefuse takes place on Tue, 21 Jul, 2026 at 05:30 pm to Tue, 21 Jul, 2026 at 08:00 pm at 1250 Shetter Ave, 1250 Shetter Avenue, Jacksonville Beach, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing Fireside Chat with Special Guest, Kelly Dyer, Founder of Sourcefuse? - **A:** Fireside Chat with Special Guest, Kelly Dyer, Founder of Sourcefuse is organized by Pete Cochrane. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
