The Road Show: Nashville Hot Chicken & Honky-Tonk
As part of “The Road Show,” a year-long series where I’m hosting a venture capital event in every state in the US, I’m coming to Nashville for hot chicken and a honky-tonk stop with local founders, investors, and operators. Join me on February 4 at 5:30 PM. The restaurant and music stop are TBD; I’ll share the route and any venue age restrictions privately with confirmed guests. Alcohol is for guests 21 and older, and drinking is optional. Attendance is by approval only; the venue and meetup instructions will be shared privately with confirmed guests. Please do not come unless your registration has been approved.
I’m the founder of Atas VC, an early-stage venture capital firm focused on investing in pre-seed companies using real technology to solve real problems for real people: American Necessities. My core belief is that great founders can come from any background; often, the founders best suited to solve problems in core American industries like agriculture, energy, or manufacturing won’t be located in Silicon Valley.
I’m also a bit of a niche TikTok micro-influencer. I’m documenting The Road Show for an audience interested in startups and venture capital, highlighting founders outside the typical VC haunts.
