What? The drought is over? No–not the California Drought, the drought of interesting events for startup founders! Take a look at the events listed in this week’s Startup Digest and you’ll be amazed! If you can’t find something that interests you, maybe you just aren’t that into the startup scene.
Best Bet: On Tuesday, Startup Grind Sacramento hosts Margaret MacKenzie, Managing Director and CFO of Astia, an organization committed to the success of world class women-led, high-growth startups. Margaret has CEO experience with 2 venture-backed fintech companies, and was a C-suite contributor for 6 venture-backed startups. Use code “digest” and save $5!
