In today’s episode, I talk to two of the visionaries behind the Global Accelerator Network and GAN ventures, Pat Riley and Reilly Flynn. We talk about the founders that they are funding, and the emerging venture ecosystem. We start by talking about what GAN is, and how it ended up in Colorado. We discuss how accelerators changed since 2005. We talk about the 4 traits they look for in founders they want to invest in. We discuss some interesting data on where to find ideas to invest in. We talk about the future of Venture in the Northern Rockies. We discuss some of the challenges that they face, as well as the founders they invest in. And we finally discuss GAN’s future and vision.
