The Govtech Fund is a Force Multiplier, due to its domain expertise and its vast ecosystem of affiliated companies and strategic resources brought to bear for its portfolio companies.
The Govtech Fund's portfolio companies have helped SchoolMint in so many ways (e.g deciding on executive compensation, picking appropriate software, customer pricing negotiation, etc).
The annual Govtech Fund founder retreat allowed us to connect with other govtech founders and has created a support system for us to face the unique challenges of our space.
I would highly recommend the Govtech Fund to any other entrepreneurs and encourage them to do whatever it takes to have the Govtech Fund invest in their company.
I have come to trust Ron as one of my closest advisers. He has mentored me through leadership challenges and has guided Mark43 through procurement processes, product development, and team growth.
Across the board I barely talk to any of my investors other than standard updates, but I talk to Ron at LEAST once a week.
