As spring slowly pushes back winter and the Covid-19 vaccine rollout continues apace in Maine, the startup community here is abuzz with renewed energy.
One of MVF’s partner organizations, Startup Maine, has done fantastic work for years in convening events and conversations across the state to nourish the entrepreneurial community here. That essential work has not stopped in the midst of the pandemic. In case you missed it, Startup Maine’s President, Katie Shorey, has hosted an Entrepreneurs and Ecosystem Builders Speaker Series, offering rich commentary across a variety of perspectives over the past few months.
Several of those perspectives have come from ambitious Maine Venture Fund portfolio company founders, and we’ve posted those video clips below. This is a great vignette of the myriad and exciting entrepreneurial pathways being forged in the state.
Thank you again Startup Maine for your great work – we look forward to following along as you continue the series!
