🟠 Small Business takeover of SXSW Festival in Austin

Entrepreneurship through acquisition is coming to SXSW

I have a quick Friday morning ask of you…

I’m teaming up with some small business twitter rockstars (@SMB_Attorney, @ChrisXMunn, and @Nunziopresto) to take over South by South West (SXSW). The more votes we get, the bigger the stage they’ll allocate us.

I’ve gone to SXSW for the last 10 years, never saw anything related to SMBs. There’s a place for us at the cool kids table. So much is missing from the ‘entrepreneurship’ conversation without talking about small business.

Big problem I realized: I knew how to make a seed round cap table for a VC backed company at 17…but had NO idea I could buy an existing business myself until I was 26. It’s an exposure and education issue. Let’s try to fix that. I truly appreciate your support.
