🚨 🗣️ SPEAKER DROP 🎤 🚨
Some post 4th of July fireworks for you...speaker announcements round 3 for Midwest House Summit Ohio (July 29–31, Columbus). Today’s group covers capital, health tech, deep tech, and the infrastructure that makes ecosystems work.
Kim Patel — Working with early-stage founders in the Midwest for J.P. Morgan, helping them find clarity at the intersection of institutional capital and entrepreneurial ambition — because the biggest banks in the world are paying attention to what gets built here.
Alex ‘Fro’ Frommeyer — Founder and CEO of Stack Health Inc. and co-founder of Beam Benefits, which he scaled from a Columbus startup into a national insurtech company — now building the operating system for personalized, individually-owned health coverage.
Julia Dewey, MPH — Chief Partnerships Officer at Rev1 Ventures, our Summit co-host and Columbus’s home for venture development — the person connecting founders, investors, and institutions across one of the fastest-growing startup ecosystems in the country.
Tim Grace — Managing Director at Techstars Columbus powered by Ohio State, backing AI-native and deep tech founders in aerospace, advanced manufacturing, and defense — and one of the most active pre-seed investors in the Midwest.
Mickayla Zinsli Rosard Rosard — Partner at Groove Capital, the Minneapolis-based pre-seed firm building one of the most active angel networks in the region and helping funnel serious capital into upper Midwest founders who too often get overlooked.
More speaker drops this week. We’re three and a half weeks out, and the excitement is getting palpable.
