Audio recordings from the Arizona Entrepreneurship Conference
Through Grid7 we just released the audio of the sessions from the Arizona Entrepreneurship Conference. All the recordings are now online and are taking the place of Grid7 Venturecast #9.
It was a hectic day at the conference, we launched JumpBox, did some interviews with the press, talked with a whole bunch of people and on top of all that ran around trying to capture audio from all the sessions.
The conference was a great event though. The turnout was surprising with a sell out at I believe 450 people. The sessions were interesting, though the session “What does it take to make a company succeed in Arizona?” had a refrain I’m getting really tired of hearing. At the end of the day, the story is always the same, startup companies in Arizona have an extremely hard time getting funded. There’s a ton of money in Arizona, but it pretty much all goes into real estate. We just started working on a round of funding for JumpBox and trying to do that in Arizona is not something I look forward to.
