Comments on: SL #4: TAG’s Strategy for Entrepreneurship in Georgia http://www.startuplounge.com/sl-4-tags-strategy-for-entrepreneurship-in-georgia/ StartupLounge.com is a grassroots organization (and podcast) started by two knuckleheads who want to make a difference for fast-growth entrepreneurs who aren't fortunate enough to live in Silicon Valley. Recorded in Atlanta, Georgia, the podcast focuses on bootstrapping, venture capital, angel investing, and other issues of interest to the entrepreneur. The show features informative guests, interactive discussions, and a nice dash of humor.

The landscape in Atlanta is evolving. I think the proposed fund that we discussed on the show could be a nice instrument, although it certainly won't address all of our issues in this market. But is a great start! Tino has agreed to come back on the show at some point and give us an update, so we're definitely looking forward to that. To build on your other comments, I do think we want to continue to leverage the show as a source for breaking news. I can tell you that based on our current guest list, we have some interesting possibilities in this regard. Cheers. Scott Thanks for tuning in, and for the kind words, everyone!

I saw today that the Atlanta Biz Chronicle has an article on the new fund that Tino was talking about, but I heard it here 1st! -GM I concur with everyone here in that this was definitely a good show.

This installment in particular reminds me of The Public Forum http://www.thepublicforum.org. The show was THE source for matters of policy and current events in Tennessee. If Tino were on The Public Forum he would have been a one man Round Table. The Round Table (which is actually oval) was comprised of movers and shakers who discussed the events of the day. Tino's discussion and the news he broke on your show was similar to the Public Forum's famous “What Do You Hear?” segment, where guests would reveal tasty water cooler tidbits that usually turned out to be true. The show represents a significant part of process to address the many challenges faced by entrepreneurs here in Georgia! Great show guys!!!

Keep this coming. I was very impressed with Tino and his grasp of the startup/entrepreneurial environment in Atlanta. To be honest, I thought TAG was all about Big companies and their IT departments. The fact that Tino and the leaders of ATDC etc are conversing about the situation and what can be done is refreshing. A $30 million dollar seed fund would be a heck of a way to start!
