“Michael and I worked on the development of vertical marketing strategies as well as potential acquisition and partnership opportunities. Michael has been a FANTASTIC person to work with. His ability to dig deep into technology products and their associated markets, from components (semiconductors) to systems, is solid. Much of his differentiation comes from his desire to get out into the field/market and TALK to as many people as possible! This has uncovered multiple finding not found in everyday research reports (if you know what I mean). Equally important is Mike's ability to communicate and deliver product direction. Mike is capable of driving projects and products with little oversight. Overall, Mike has been outstanding to work with and is able to operate under tight deadlines while maintaining composure and, yes, even humor!”

Hivers and Strivers is an Angel Investment Group focusing on early stage investments to support start-up companies founded and run by graduates of the U.S. Military Academies. Most of our investors have served in the military and are successful senior executives with experience in a broad range of industries and business models. All of our investors understand that young veterans, and particularly graduates of U.S. Military Academies, are smart, highly motivated, determined, and are, arguably, the most capable young Americans in the nation today. We are convinced that investments in start-up companies by young military veterans will provide superior returns and that our young military veterans are often the most overlooked and underfunded group of entrepreneurs in the nation.
