Mind Your Business, NKY!

Shaking up venture capital by valuing digital first with Brad Zapp, Connetic Ventures

LINK nky Season 1 Episode 12

This week on Mind Your Business, NKY!, LINK nky CEO Lacy Starling and Business Reporter Kenton Hornbeck discuss the Sims Furniture building in Covington and new plans for its development as a small business incubator office space. Learn more about what businesses are moving in, the history of the building dating back to 1929, and plans for the space moving forward.

Then, Lacy sits down with Brad Zapp, Co-Founder and CFO of Connetic Ventures to chat about the early stages of entrepreneurships, being an at-risk investment company and starting the journey with entrepreneurs. Brad discusses starting an Angel Group in 2015 to get Connetic Ventures off the ground to further refine their scope in 2018-2019 to go national and eventually international.

Brad also dives into what an "Institutional Fund" is, the primary focus of being an asset class and why Connetic Ventures chose to go digital in 2019. Connectic Ventures is the nation's first (and possibly only) digital  venture capital company as of 2019 with the help of their bot analyst, Wendel.
