ABL DUOs: T.K. Petersen and Ryan Wilson
This is a story about friendship.
Ryan Wilson and T.K. Petersen met each other in college. However, learning about their lives before they shared a dorm room on the campus of Georgetown University really helps more people understand why Variety Magazine, INC., Wired, USA TODAY, Bloomberg, Black Enterprise, The Guardian, The Root, All the Fly Kids, Buzzfeed and many, many more label them - with astonishment, as super-star entrepreneurs.
Ryan and T.K. started a membership club called The Gathering Spot in 2016. In 2023, it has more than 13,000 members and locations in Atlanta, Ga., Washington, D.C., and Los Angeles, Ca.
Both call Atlanta, GA home and started their company in that city. But it's really their friendship and worldview that makes what has happened in their personal lives and their company so very listen worthy.
