StartFest Presentation – “Designing the Perfect Advisory Board™”

Hey everyone, I’m speaking at Utah Silicon Slopes StartFest next week on June 23, 2026!  I’ll be speaking on Designing the Perfect Advisory Board™.  I think that a strategically created Advisory Board helps startups with both business execution and capital raising.
