TEDxDayton Speaker To Put Twist On Entrepreneurship Talk

Jerry Kenney
David Gasper

We’ve been introducing you to some of the speakers at this year’s TEDxDayton conference. It takes place October 16th at the Victoria Theatre and is already a sold-out event. Today you’ll meet David Gasper, a serial software entrepreneur with a bachelor’s degree in Quantitative Business Analysis from Wright State University and an MBA from the University of Dayton.  Ernst and Young named him “1998 Dayton’s Entrepreneur of the Year” in the high tech category. Here’s David to tell us a little bit more about himself and what he’ll talk to TEDxDayton audiences about.

Jerry began volunteering at WYSO in 1991 and hosting Sunday night's Alpha Rhythms in 1992. He joined the YSO staff in 2007 as Morning Edition Host, then All Things Considered. He's hosted Sunday morning's WYSO Weekend since 2008 and produced several radio dramas and specials . In 2009 Jerry received the Best Feature award from Public Radio News Directors Inc., and was named the 2023 winner of the Ohio Associated Press Media Editors Best Anchor/News Host award. His current, heart-felt projects include the occasional series Bulletin Board Diaries, which focuses on local, old-school advertisers and small business owners. He has also returned as the co-host Alpha Rhythms.
