He built an app to save people time. It cost him everything that mattered. Nate Corbin has one speed: faster. His startup, VELOCE, promises to give people their lives back by stripping away everything that slows them down-and it's about to make him a fortune. Then, in a single catastrophic afternoon, the life he optimized so carefully comes apart at the seams.
