CincyTech CEO Mike Venerable talks startups with Forbes Cincinnati Business Courier

Cincinnati's startup community recently got a national shoutout from one of its biggest champions, Mike Venerable, who was featured in a Forbes Q&A highlighting the region's reputation as a "hotbed" for burgeoning new companies.

In the Q&A with Venerable, the CincyTech CEO and native Ohioan told Forbes that since CincyTech began investing in startups in 2007, the city of Cincinnati now feels "entirely different."

"I especially remember in ‘07, ‘08, ‘09, you’d be downtown, and it felt like living in a black-and-white movie. There were tumbleweeds blowing down the street," he said.
