For regional startup cities to stand out, be true to yourself

I joined Chattanooga Tennessee Mayor Tim Kelly, and Joe Kirgues, the cofounder of the startup accelerator provider gener8tor, for a discussion at COLLAB. It’s the well-polished mobility- and quantum-themed conference produced by that city’s entrepreneur support organization.

Our theme? How do small city’s stand out. My push? Talk to each other, find a consistent narrative. Be authentic, honest and repeat those people stories.

I ended up filing this story after the conference and a quantum piece here. I also hosted a webinar on the U.S. Southeast’s entreprenuership activity.
