Similar to the first few months of the year, April was a big month for venture capital funding. Two big Atlanta-based software companies SalesLoft and FullStory. Both companies took in some pretty significant investments from west coast investors. Smaller companies also won big in April with lower-series funding rounds. FinTech South 2019 hosted one of the biggest pitch competitions so far this year. The financial technology conference put on by the Technology Association of Georgia (TAG) awarded $50,000 to Stackfolio. Stackfolio has created a digital marketplace for loan trading. Atlanta’s fintech companies are some of the most interesting because they are tackling real-life, everyday pain points for thousands of people. In terms of Atlanta incubators and accelerators, Switchyards Downtown Club has launched a new vertical called the Switchyards Neighborhood Club. The cool thing about this initiative is that you don’t have to be a startup founder to participate. Their Midtown location will be opening soon, and it’s a great opportunity to network and socialize with other people in the community. https://www.myasbn.com/small-business-shows/hypepotamus-the-hype/hype-seed-funding-continued-thrive-april-salesloft-fullstory-coming-top/

I can’t believe it’s been two years since I took the leap to share my voice with the world in a big and scary way. I had no expectations for how far this road would take me which is why I feel so blessed that I have the opportunity to celebrate TWO YEARS of giving Atlanta entrepreneurs a platform to tell their story in a unique and authentic way. On this very special episode, we are going to shake things up… Turning the tables is my good friend and fellow lady boss, Becky Berry, who will interview yours truly. Yes, it’s time for me to tell my story in a way that I never have before. Listen as we pop the champagne and talk about the high and woes of#startuplife. And make sure you stick around because Michael Cowherd, Founder of On The Way!, and co-organizer of W.O.E. (Women Only Entrepreneurs) woeatl.eventbrite.com will also be joining me in studio to talk about an incredible upcoming event for Atlanta’s trailblazing women. Becky Berry/Becky Berry Career Coaching Infinite possibilities exist at the intersection of women, technology, and education. My belief in those infinite possibilities and my experience in varied careers, including technology, enable me to help clients gain new, unimagined perspectives on their careers. How? By helping clients rediscover, reclaim, and re-imagine their talents, skills, strengths, work experience, and life experience so they can identify their ideal careers and go after them! I know how to help women bridge the gap between their perceptions of what tech work is and the reality of the broad range of career opportunities in technology. Here’s the thing. I’ve had several careers including magazine publisher, software entrepreneur, stay-at-home mom, and social entrepreneur. Now, as a Certified Professional Career Coach, I use my extensive and varied work experience to help women take action to embrace change with excitement to reach their dreams. Clients learn how to dig down and unearth their hidden talents. They also learn how to talk about their talents and skills as we create strategies that will lead to the success they have been looking for. We re-imagine their current careers or imagine and explore better ones. Along the way, we develop a picture or their lives that they could never have dreamed of. We take all of the work we do together and create a personalized, achievable career path.
