The Future Founders U.Pitch competition is open to collegiate entrepreneurs. Twenty finalists were named today. While none are based in Missouri, two fall under the 4thEst8 umbrella of “around Missouri” and we reached out to both Nicholas Love and Mona Fang via LinkedIn. While both responded to PM’s they professed to be too busy or too shy for an immediate phone interview.
