Building and scaling in a thriving tech ecosystem demands a deep understanding of the relationship between venture capital, deal flows, and the marketplace. Founders striving to build traction in top innovation regions must focus on building strategic networks, partnering with the right investors, and collaborating across the ecosystem. The most successful ventures happen when the founder’s and investor’s goals are aligned and relevant to the market.

In other words, prioritizing collaboration and providing value is at the core of positioning a startup for sustainable growth and success in a dynamic tech environment.

In this episode of the Extraordinary Pursuits podcast from BIP Ventures, John Yates from Morris, Manning, and Martin LLP discusses the evolution of Atlanta and the Southeast as a thriving center for technology and innovation. Drawing on his extensive experience working with founders since the 1980s, John shares valuable lessons learned, along with the challenges and opportunities that have shaped the region's tech landscape. He also provides wisdom to help founders navigate the venture deal environment and explains what they can expect from the process.
