This week GrowVC’s COO, Markus returned to host our Everyone funding startups podcast. Markus interviewed GrowVC’s Networks Program manager, Paul Higgins about his background, the program, and the partners that are already onboard.
GrowVC’s Networks program is a key part of our vision to create a global, virtual Silicon Valley, in which we democratize access to investment, expertise, and communities for startups globally. Our partners create Networks in order to manage their own community, under their own brand, within the global GrowVC community.
