Carolyn Spencer & Chad - CoPivot | Each year 1M+ businesses are started in the United States, and by their second year 20% fail. We want to change that statistic. CoPivot was specifically developed for curious, driven, and motivated - often overlooked - founders to guide their business-building journey. We have been through their experience and can empathize with their challenges. Request early access here.

Nikhil Shah - MARCIE | The US book industry made almost $30B in 2022. Print dominates, while ebooks (9%) and audio (10%) are on the rise. Yet, writers incomes have shrunk. MARCIE is a platform designed to help writers save time and money, so they can do more of what they love. Write! Meet Nikhil here.
