This SHOULD be the most informative and helpful event we have had in the last five years. (129 people have already registered)

Last year, I attended the annual Startup Summit hosted by two Raleigh area professionals who created this one day conference because of the high cost of a traditional and similar entrepreneur and venture capital conference in the region.

With their permission and participation, we are going to recreate one of the best sessions from that conference that was one of the VERY best sessions that I have seen in 20 years of entrepreneur development. A HUGE Thank you to our moderator for this event, Keith Washo of Startup Summit.   https://www.wraltechwire.com/2019/10/01/big-names-top-startup-summit-lineup-event-founders-have-plans-to-expand/

Among the high profile entrepreneurs speaking at the Startup Summit, serial entrepreneur and part-time beach resident Scot Wingo of Channel Advisor and Spiffy is VERY highly regarded and a treasured mentor to other entrepreneurs.

Todd Olson is newer to the Raleigh scene but has started the MOST PROMISING startup in ALL of North Carolina if not all of the south as he just announced 600 new jobs for a new Raleigh headquarters.

At the Startup Summit, Wingo and Olson gave over a dozen tips to the entrepreneurs in the audience on how to scale their startups. Thanks to our moderator for this event, Keith Washo, we have the video of this presentation.

We are going to recreate this session in Wilmington. We have a video of this speech, the slides, one of the founders of Startup Summit, an investor and five local entrepreneurs to make this event a success for you.

Why is Jim so BOLD in these statements?

I, Jim Roberts, am the founder of NEW and have worked in entrepreneur development for 19 years in North Carolina; in Charlotte, Asheville, Durham and Wilmington. In the last six years, I have started the UNC Wilmington CIE as Founding Executive Director, restarted the Connect Conference from work in Asheville (now known as Cucalorus Connect), started NEW and the Wilmington Angels for Local Entrepreneurs (WALE) and led the expansion of Bunker Labs into Wilmington. Yes I have proof of all of this.
