Euler Science got the giant check from last nights Pitches Get Stitches (and $500) pitch competition, sponsored by Balto.
“Balto’s founders have a commitment to support the startup ecosystem, especially early stage founders,” Meghan Cronin said at TechArtista, UCIty. Cronin is the Head of Community Development for the established startup, as well as a bizblip ‘Hold My Beer’ 90-Under-90 awardee. “Balto values giving back to the community that was so essential in helping us grow.”
To that end, Balto founder and CEO Marc Bernstein attended the inaugural bizblip Founders Only: Winter Camp while founder and COO Chris Kontes played host to a Founders Only : Zero Hour in the spring. Founders Only events are only open to startup founders and team members, the next one is in two weeks: Founders Only-Fall Camp tickets are still available.
