Yesterday was a big day at the ATDC Startup Showcase. First and foremost nine companies graduated from ATDC. Not to take anything away from the success of these amazing companies and entrepreneurs but in the big scheme of things that may have been the smaller story. 

The bigger story is that Georgia Tech announced that they were going to own the problem. They were pulling an Ohio.

In a nutshell in conjunction with Imlay Investments, Georgia Tech is launching a 21st century technology accelerator program. I have been involved with a small team led by Merrick Furst and Nina Sawczuk to bring this new technology accelerator to life. It is scheduled to launch on May 17. If you would like to find out more a visit to flashpoint.gatech.edu is in order.
