Summer, sunshine and the relentless pursuit of building the future.
In the startup world, the summer is notorious for being the absolute worst time to do one thing – fundraise. The myth goes something like… “all of the venture capitalists are on their yachts touring Mykonos, Nice, and the rest of the mediterranean sea.” And while the (a few) of these VC’s are taking holiday around the Med, the entrepreneurs are still hustling as hard as ever growing their business.
No matter which type of summer you’re having, the one filled with holidays or the one filled with hustle-days, we’ve got you covered with more of Heartland innovation successes and the people behind the stories.
From Atlanta to Milwaukee and from opportunity funds to robotics, The Mid-Point’s Summer Series will give you plenty to listen to and learn about all of the action happening across the country. Make sure to tune in on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you prefer to listen to your favorite podcasts.
