Shotput Ventures 60 Days After Demo Day

So we’re exactly two months after our first Atlanta Shotput Ventures Demo Day. Let’s take a quick look at how things have played out so far:

• Three of the eight companies have stayed in Atlanta and five have moved out (almost all that left returned to where they came from)
• Two have raised a professional angel round or are about to close the round
• Two have raised money from friends and family
• One is trying to raise a Series A
• One has pseudo shutdown while evaluating next steps
• Two companies were put in part-time mode while the co-founders took consulting jobs unrelated to their startup
• Two are generating revenue

That’s all I have right now. Stay tuned for more updates in the future.
