Traveling throughout the U.S. for business, Dan Kerr regularly comes across investors who have heard rumblings about the burgeoning Kansas City tech startup ecosystem, he said.
But one problem persists: most of these potential funders have never stepped foot in Kansas City.
“Really what got my gears turning is that I have a big network of investors around the country who hear things about Kansas City — they hear really positive things [and] they want to come out, but they don’t have a focal point of when to do that,” Kerr said. “I also go to a lot of events in other regions, and I’ve seen some things that work really well to get connections going.”
