“The Venture Dev series connected us with local mentors and a cohort of other entrepreneurs in Greater Lafayette who have helped us focus what our organization can and will be. We’ve made some pivots and are structuring the agency on a firm foundation because of exploration that happened during the workshops that MatchBOX provided.”
