In contributor editorial, issue two, the update by jayclouse06/02/2019Leave a Comment

by Amy Nelson If you’re reading this, you may already know that last year 75% of US Venture Capital went to one of three states: California, New York, or Massachusetts. That left the remaining 47 states begging for sub-1% scraps. Of course, 75% of investor …
