Patrick Kinne, our senior consultant, recently attended the Boomtown Accelerator’s Fall 2017 Demo Day on November 14. Eight companies pitched their businesses and presented product demonstrations to a packed house at the Boulder Theater, which featured an open bar for the entire event. To add subject diversity, each presenting company had a unique focus, ranging from AI conversations to energy storage devices.
