Welcome back to the newest season of In The Soup 🍲, a show—now under The GrepBeat Podcast—that addresses the most pressing topics facing North Carolina’s early-stage startup founders.
To celebrate the beginning of a new year, today’s episode covers the pros and cons of building your startup in the “old” way (stealth) versus the “new” way (in public). Hosts Jenn Summe of Primordial Ventures and Melissa Crosby of Colopy Ventures listen to two Triangle entrepreneurs who have experience and opinions from both sides, and they break down which way best works for a specific company’s mission.
Said Triangle entrepreneurs Akash Ganapathi of Durham-based Opine, who built in stealth before publicly announcing the startup’s launch and investment from Primordial, and Parker Mayes of Inbound Revenue, who publicly updated the community on and built out his previous venture Let’s Go Raleigh before selling it last year.
Today’s episode is proudly sponsored by Milan PR, a full-service, strategic communications firm with over 50 years of experience in the corporate, non-profit, and government sectors.
