Thank you to Beth Zonis and the Cleantech Open Northeast / ACT for having me speak at their event. The Cleantech Open Northeast introduced us and brought us to Boston for the first time, and we have stayed there ever since. Congratulations to the winners! My feedback to startups during my speech: ? Manage the penny, not the dollar. ? Listen to your mentors - their experience and feedback will be vital to your success. ? Small teams with good culture will accomplish more than large teams. ? It takes a community to make a good startup. Find a community that supports your start-up and grows with it.
