Why does this matter to Greenville?
If you didn’t know, Greenville is home to one of the country’s Top 10 Angel Investor Groups: VentureSouth. Throughout the pandemic, Greenville has become a hub for talent, entrepreneurs, and investment as businesses and investors relocated to our area over the last few years.
But this event isn’t just for Greenville entrepreneurs, as the winner of the NEXT Venture Pitch competition gets to pitch on stage as the presenting company at the Venture Atlanta 2021 Conference in October.
