Startup of the Year Podcast


Jan 12, 2021

On this episode of the Startup of the Year Podcast we’re going to hear an interview that Rich Maloy, our VP of Engagement at Established, did with Aaron Froug.
 
Aaron is the Co-Founder and CEO of Grifin, which is a cool new fintech app that makes investing as energizing as buying your morning coffee. Basically, the app allows users to invest a dollar in every company where they spend money. It is pretty amazing and I’ve never really seen anything quite like it.
 
Grifin was the People’s Choice Award winner at our Startup of the Year Summit last Fall and our entire team was pretty excited about it and most actually downloaded the app. Aaron also talks about raising capital and other tips and tricks that he has learned while navigating the waters as a  startup entrepreneur.

Startup of the Year is also a year-long program that searches the country for a geographically diverse set of startups from all backgrounds and pulls them together to compete for the title of Startup of the Year. 
 
The program includes a number of in-person and virtual events, including our annual South By Southwest startup pitch event and competition. All of which culminate at our annual Startup of the Year Summit, where the Startup of the Year winner is announced, along with an opportunity at a potential investment.
