Today we are happy to bring back two companies from the QC Fintech Accelerator Program Class 8. This is the third class now where we have brought several members onto the program to talk about their companies and their experience in Charlotte – and more importantly being a part of what has grown to be a world class accelerator program.
As a reminder, you can come see these two companies and their classmates on June 13 at the Fintech Generations conference at AvidExchange. It will be an awesome event and would love to see you out there.
For this episode of the Charlotte Angel Connection, we interviewed two of the founders with Credpal (they have 4) and one of the founders with Invoiro (they have 2). In keeping with tradition, the first episode is primarily dedicated to their companies and the second episode will target their experiences thus far (about 1/2 into the program at the time of the recording).
As such, in this episode we tackle some of the following:
What is their company and where the idea came from?
Are they scared about the fact that both companies have competition in their space?
What were the founders doing prior to starting their companies?
How did they meet their co-founders?
What’s been the most difficult aspect of their startup – given they are both about 1-year into it?
How do they tackle all the various challenges they already see and anticipate the ones ahead of them?
Come back next week and listen to what they have to say about Charlotte and the QC Fintech Accelerator program. How is Charlotte attracting really high quality talent from across the world and what do they think of the program today! It’s a great part II and speaks to the quality and depth of what Dan and his team have built. I’m excited to bring it to you next week!
