Recap – Charlotte Veteran Startup Showcase #CLTVET17

October 27, 2017 Todd Serulneck

Mission Focused Event! #CLTVET17

Hosted by Task Force X Capital

I’d like to say what an honor and a privilege it is to be able to support Task Force X Capital in its Mission and this fantastic event on October 26, 2017 with 120 veterans, investors, influencers, founders and executives.

Thanks to Brandon Shelton at Task Force X Capital for putting this together. The event clearly raised the bar and the execution was flawless.

Congrats to the winner, Mike Murphy from ProctorFree. Your pitch was awesome. The prize was $50K, but more importantly is the street cred and being able to pitch in front of significant area VCs.

It was also great to see Chris Ford from NAVSO and Nick Black from GoodUnited.

Finally, I am happy I got to know Blake Bourne at Charlotte Bridge Home better.

If you would be interested in attending an event like this in the future, please let me know.
