Tony Peniche- New Opportunities for New Ideas

One of the greatest revelations in the world of business, commerce and enterprise in the past decade has been the rise of crowd-funding and kick-starter style websites. In many ways, these revolutionary ideas encapsulate the modern world of business, and have given rise to numerous exciting and innovative companies and designs. In the past, good ideas didn't always mean they would have the chance to become a reality. The competitive world of business meant that finding an investor was hugely reliant on contacts, and being in the right place at the right time. Now, using crowd funding websites and kick starter campaigns, there is more opportunities than ever for ambitious entrepreneurs to get their ideas of the ground.

For Portland based entrepreneur and photographer Tony Peniche – Crowd funding Campaigns have truly revolutionized the way businessmen like himself approach new ideas in the market today. Portland has gained a reputation as being one of the most exciting hubs of creative minds in Th States today, so it s probably no surprise to learn that it is a city where crowd funding and kick-starters are thriving so readily. Tony Peniche is one of the leading minds an entrepreneurs in the city today, and has become something of an expert on the field. He regularly lectures at the University of Portland on topics such as entrepreneurial start-ups, crowd funding and kick-starter methods, and how to turn ideas and concepts into reality.

And he is not just a man who talks the talks. Tony has also taken huge practical steps to help cultivate creativity and enterprising attitudes in his home town. He was the founder of the legendary NXT Industries, a creative space for artists, freelancers and entrepreneurs to work, network and share ideas to help each others ideas grow and reach their full potential. Whilst NXT is one of hundreds of such spaces in the exciting city of Portland, NXT Industries is certainly one of the most impressive.

For Tony Peniche, crowd funding has shaped The American Dream and What it Means Today. It has given a new lease of life to the enterprising spirit that makes this nation so great, and helped ideas proliferate and grow more than any other point in history. For Tony Peniche, there is nothing more gratifying than being able to help others develop ideas, and make them a reality.

Tony Peniche – The Essence of an Entrepreneur

The question that every entrepreneur hears at least once on his or her journey to success is this: Do you have what it takes? This is the question that implores entrepreneurs to delve deep within themselves, searching for the vision that started them on the path towards greatness. A path that will hopefully result in a revolutionary idea or product that will change the world for the better. A path fraught with uncertainty and adventure that requires commitment, dedication, and an innovative mind.

For young businessman Tony Peniche, the path of entrepreneurial success began when he was a student at Western Oregon University, where he obtained his Associate’s degree in Kinesiology and Exercise Science. Tony initially saw himself as an athlete, participating in Track and Field races and long jump events. However, after completing two years at WOU, Tony realized that sports were not his calling and decided to enroll at the Art Institute of Portland. Here he received his BA in Apparel Design; but more than that, he discovered his passion for the arts.

Tony Peniche chose to make his entrepreneurial dream come true by going into fashion design after graduating from the Art Institute. From 2007-2013, he became an expert in men’s wear fashion, and was awarded Fashion Designer of the Year in 2012 by the Portland Fashion & Style Awards. This was also the year that Tony opened his own commercial photography studio, specializing in editorials, high impact shots, headshots, and fashion photography. Tony’s ambition and perseverance continued to make waves in the creative world with the opening of his company NXT Industries, which designs creative, shared office spaces for Portland creatives, giving others like him an opportunity to take their business, idea, or passion to the next level.

In the wake of his success in the arts, Tony decided to try his hand in a new industry. Through an intensive kick-starter campaign, Tony launched his groundbreaking company Time & Oak, which develops products that enhance whiskey. In 2014, the Tony invented and released the Whiskey Element, a patented invention that allows users to dramatically improve the quality of their whiskey bottles in a mere 24 hours by removing harsh chemicals and making it incredibly smooth.

Tony Peniche exemplifies the true essence of what it means to be an entrepreneur – taking risks, being innovative, and carving your own path in a world that isn’t always kind to those who don’t follow the status quo.
