New Accelerate OC Podcast: Co-Author of The Startup Community Way, Senior Director at TechStars (Part I)

Ian Hathaway has been a founder, an investor, an author, a professor and an advisor, just to name a few roles he’s played.

He’s currently an executive at Techstars, a fellow at Brookings Institution, a board member at the Center for American Entrepreneurship and recently co-authored a book, The Startup Community Way, with his friend, Brad Feld. 

Ian is the type of thinker, connector and advisor that we need in our country to help us better understand entrepreneurship, investment and how we transform our economy to one more focused on innovation.

Carey is so excited to share their chat as Ian can cover a lot of ground. They both love data and have had some fun geeking out a bit lately on some economic and jobs data.  This is part 1 of 2 - enjoy!

Thanks to Accelerate OC show host Carey Ransom for another interesting episode promoting Orange County startups!
