What a week! Last week Cortado Ventures hosted our second annual Midcon VC Summit with 360 attendees from 30 states representing $1.5 trillion. Builders, backers and supporters converged in Bentonville, AR, to collaborate on the opportunities and challenges for regional tech startups. I was blown away by the hospitality and vibrancy of the venture ecosystem in NW Arkansas, drawing so many curious about this third wave of innovation. In a world of digital meets the physical world – where bits meet atoms – the #Midcontinent is leading the way. So many highlights, one was my fireside chat with Katie Koch, CEO of The TCW Group. Her insights into the global market across asset classes, and ability to articulate for action, is second to none. Allocating to venture for vintage diversification and arbitrage in a downturn is a winning move, especially when seeking alpha with niche managers. CEOs who focus on fundamentals like unit economics and cash flow will survive and thrive in the venture winter. Many breakouts catered to different audiences. We had experts like Quinn Robertson train angel investors, Build in Tulsa Techstars Accelerator founders pitch VCs, Bryce Murray give insights on hiring tech talent, ecosystem builders like C. Renzi Stone and Troy Vosseller gener8tor reveal their innovative plans to attract talent and capital for critical mass, Steuart Walton on building the quality of life and essential entrepreneurial elements, and so much more. Fortune, Lydia Fletcher, Arkansas Money & Politics, Paul Gatling, Axios, NPR and The Journal Record expertly covered the magic and why it matters. High paying jobs, economic opportunity, incredible founders and investors seeking alpha support the buzz. Thanks to Visit Bentonville, Northwest Arkansas Council, Walton Family Foundation, Runway Group, and all our Bentonville friends who rolled out the red carpet. The atmosphere was electric. So many follow ups, so much goodwill, a lot of attention on the Midcontinent with a new outlook on the future of venture capital. A huge thank you to our amazing Cortado Ventures team and Simone Sparks for absolutely crushing it. Incredibly hard work to make the magic happen, and it happened. And special thanks to Matt Tarver and Donald Huffner for being in the trenches with us, the ultimate convener and collaborator. Can’t forget the University of Arkansas hog call, the most memorable call-to-action in venture history. It began just a year ago (crazy), and there’s so much more to do.
