At the HSSU Center of Innovation and Entrepreneurship CIE, authenticity is one of our core values. When we call someone a partner, like Arch Grants, it’s because we mean it—there’s a genuine connection. When we call someone a leader, it’s because they have real entrepreneurial experience, business acumen, and a proven track record of success. We are proud to celebrate Arch Grants’ latest cohort of groundbreaking startups, especially recognizing Michelle Robinson CIE’s Startup Cohort Facilitator. Michell embodies the entrepreneurial spirit we champion at the CIE—leading with passion, expertise, and the ability to inspire. Attending the Arch Grants event with our CIE leadership team and student fellows was an incredible experience. The energy in the room was absolutely electric, the MC and founder @Pierre Paul was phenomenal, and it was a privilege to see this next cohort of entrepreneurs shine. Here’s to innovation, collaboration, and making a lasting impact! ?? #CIE #AuthenticLeadership #Entrepreneurship #ArchGrants #StartupSuccess

As I reflect on the past week, I am overwhelmed with gratitude and pride for the incredible moments we shared as an Arch Grants Community. Tuesday, we hosted Founder Summit, where over 50 Arch Grants companies gathered to connect, learn, and inspire one another. The energy and collaboration in the room were nothing short of electric. Wednesday was Demo Day, where our Founders shone with corporate partners and investors from around the Midwest. Watching the bridges being built and opportunities being created reminded me why this work matters so deeply. And last night, we closed it all with neXus, our annual gala—a celebration of innovation and impact. Over 850 supporters filled Union Station to honor the bold ideas and relentless drive that are shaping the future of this region. None of this would have been possible without the unparalleled diligence and hard work of the Arch Grants team. Kathy McCadden, MA, Alfred Jackson, CeCe Mingo, Chris Reimer, Julie Kinsella, Lauren Dittmeier, Betsy Barton, each of you took on an ambitious week of events with grace, passion, and precision. I am humbled by your commitment to this mission and truly honored to have you as collaborators on this amazing journey. A heartfelt thank you to Maxine Clark, who exemplifies leadership and vision in all that she does, and to our 2024 Entrepreneur Awardee, Bob Clark, whose legacy continues to transform St. Louis. Bob’s story, highlighted last night, serves as a powerful reminder of the impact one person can have on a community. I was overwhelmed with gratitude and excitement as Bob announced a $1 million (!!!) matching challenge gift to Arch Grants to ensure our work continues for the long-term. Finally, a special shout-out to Pierre Paul whose energy and charisma was nothing short of spectacular as the event emcee. This week was more than a series of events; it was a celebration of what’s possible when a city comes together to dream, innovate, and invest in the future. St. Louis, we have so much to be proud of—and so much more to accomplish. Thank You to EVERYONE who has supported, engaged and amplified our work - you are Arch Grants. Here’s to what comes next. #STLMade #Innovation #Leading #Entrepreneurship

Guess who made The New York Times wirecutter's "Best Teas We’ve Tasted" list? Big Heart Tea Co.—for the THIRD year in a row. Nothing compares to a review that comes out of nowhere, unprompted, from someone who actually means it. And believe me, when the Times says, “Hey, this tea’s pretty great,” it’s not just a pat on the back—it’s a measurable impact on our bottom line. The tape gun is ripping today and we're filling orders as fast as we receive them. The swell in biz this time of year is so exciting - thank you for being a part of it.

Exciting times for MaxFi! We had the privilege of attending the Nexus Gala last night, where Jeff Hutchens and Robert G. Mills had a great time sharing MaxFi's vision and our progress with attendees. Being a part of Arch Grants' Fellows program is a superb opportunity, and we're honored to be among a select few invited to join. As we continue to innovate and progress in our mission to redefine surgical simulations with lifelike cadavers, we're thankful for the support we have received from St. Louis and look forward to what's ahead. #MaxFi #StLouis #Innovation #MedTech #SurgicalTraining #Medicine

Huge congratulations to Gabe Angieri and his incredible team for hosting an unforgettable Arch Grant Gala—it was truly an honor to attend my first! The evening's theme of unlocking untapped potential and the strength and resilience it requires was powerfully conveyed through every moment of the event. Thank you, Gabe, for sharing your inspiring leadership journey—we were all deeply moved. Special congratulations to the 2024 Entrepreneur of the Year, Bob Clark! Your words of wisdom resonated deeply, offering a fresh perspective on leadership, resilience, and purpose in business and life. Here are just a few key takeaways that left a lasting impression: Be decisive: If you're not passionate about your work, make a bold move to find what truly drives you. Trust your intuition: Even when it feels uncertain, follow your gut and what feels right for you. Lead with empathy: Show compassion to your team, your customers, and the challenges you're solving. Surround yourself with brilliance: Build teams of people who are five times smarter and better than you—this is a cornerstone of success. Be selective: Work only with customers and projects that align with your values and vision. Address challenges head-on: Complacency, arrogance, and negativity have no place in building a thriving business. Learn and evolve: Every problem has a solution if you're willing to adapt and grow. Bob’s advice on leadership and growth is a testament to why Clayco has achieved such remarkable success. His authenticity, humility, and clarity remind us all to stay focused, compassionate, and driven to make meaningful impact. Lastly, a big congratulations to the new class of Arch Grants recipients! Your entrepreneurial journeys inspire us all, and we look forward to seeing the innovation, determination, and transformative change you will bring to our community and beyond. Here's to your success and the exciting road ahead! Let’s continue unlocking potential, embracing resilience, and shaping the future with empathy and determination. #Leadership #Entrepreneurship #creativity #Resilience #Empathy #future #Innovation #PurposeDriven #ArchGrants #motivation #careers #startups #Clayco #CommunityImpact Clayco Arch Grants Preston Davis
