Drive Capital, the Columbus, Ohio-based venture capital firm, raised a $250 fund focused on young tech firms in the Midwest in February and has already put some of it to work in Pittsburgh, leading NoWait’s $10 million round in May. Nick Solaro, a former Google executive who joined Drive as a partner six months ago, plans to be in town for Thrill Mill’s Investor Day Friday and the Thrival Festival, Pittsburgh’s music and innovation mashup, Saturday and Sunday.
