It’s time to pay it forward. To get the opportunity to serve the entrepreneurial and innovation ecosystem of Indiana, the same community that supported me early in my career, is the highest honor. Collectively, through experience sharing and hands-on support for our heroes, the founders, we will continue to increase the amount of statewide innovation and the success rates of those brave enough to challenge the status quo.
