Do you have a crew that’s got your back and your business? The people who celebrate your wins, support your growth, and care about well-being just as much as your bottom line? Huge thanks to Lighthouse Labs RVA for making moments like this possible. Seeing founders who are making the world a better place fully surrounded by a true, all-in ecosystem— investors, mentors, Lighthouse Labs RVA, 757 Collab, Startup Virginia, and VIPC | Virginia Innovation Partnership Corporation—is what building a community should be all about. This is Virginia's entrepreneurial scene. This is what community should look like—showing up for each other in all the right ways. And I love that! Virginia is THE place for founders to start and grow a business. #Founders #Entrepreneurs #Growth #HealthTech #AdaptiveFashion #Wellbeing #Community #LetsGrow #Virginia #Ecosystem #ThankYou Erica Cole, Ankit Mathur, Paul Nolde, Debbie Irwin, Richard Wintsch, Matt Gittleman, Megan Newman, Dan Myers
