The Midwest Startup Boom w/ Nick Moran of New Stack of Ventures
b'On today\\u2019s episode I catch up with Nick Moran of New Stack Ventures. New Stack is a VC firm based out of Chicago, IL that focuses on early seed stage investing. With a strong focus on investing in their own backyard, Nick and New Stack are on pace to build a brand name VC between the coasts that represents the Midwest on the national stage. It was great to hear about how things are going and what they have planned for the future.\\n\\nAlong with being a big time VC, Nick is also a veteran podcaster. He hosts a podcast called The Full Ratchet where he interviews fellow venture capitalists and investor experts. It\\u2019s a great pod and I highly recommend checking it out. He was kind enough to have me on the show back in 2015. If you\\u2019d like to listen to those episodes, I\\u2019ve included links in the show notes below.\\n\\nDuring today\\u2019s chat you\\u2019ll hear some pretty honest, real talk about the world of venture capital and how it functions, what\\u2019s broken, and where it\\u2019s going.'
