This year at Startup Oasis I gave a presentation called “4 Insights from the Fastest Growing Companies in America.” Startup Oasis went from March 14-16 in Austin, TX, during SXSW Interactive, and is an event hosted by the Kauffman Foundation and UP Global, the creators of Startup Weekend.

On this blog I share the slide deck that I used, as well as all the research and data sources I pulled from to create the presentation. The presentation builds on a good amount of previous research from the Kauffman Foundation, and many ideas here were inspired by previous presentations by Kauffman’s Yas Motoyama and former Kauffman colleague Jared Konczal. Hope you enjoy it.
