Since former Major League Baseball player Ryan E. Bowen transitioned into entrepreneurship, he has become a prominent figure in the business world. His venture into entrepreneurship started when he retired from professional baseball and co-founded Swift Mobility, a company specializing in custom wheelchairs and online medical equipment sales.
He also played roles at Bank One, J.P. Morgan Chase, and Comerica Bank where he actively managed a portfolio of businesses totaling over $30,000,000, according to a statement.
Bowen has continued to explore new frontiers and now has an interest in the first minority company to operate a stock exchange, Dream Exchange. He joins the mission as a Dream Exchange Ambassador.
