Manage episode 373901772 series 3501626
Dan Rockwell and Michelle Gatchell talk to recent OSU Grad Addam Jensen about Tech Startup Holocron.
Holocron Technologies was one of six Ohio State student startup ventures chosen for the inaugural President’s Buckeye Accelerator cohort. The yearlong program, directed by Ohio State’s Keenan Center for Entrepreneurship, provides the teams with $50,000 in funding as well as mentorship, skill-building, and community to help prepare them to launch their businesses.
Addam shared the journey that has led him to completing his first seed round of 1.6 million. He talks about their focus being on science and technology intelligence. Using publicly available information to create an assessment, in near real time using natural language processing, of what exactly our peers are developing and how do we compare that to where we are as a nation? He talks about how it can be used by both public and private entities. His story about fund raising is a good one for people to hear. The tech he is developing shows the momentum of the midwest at its best.
