I know Nick, Bob, and Strader from early Uber Boston days - they are great people and very hard workers. I'm really happy to see ex-Uber folks going after an opportunity to strengthen local communities vs. so many others who tried to hop on the next scooter / marketplace / fintech 'rocketship'

I don't know enough about the investment model they support, but any company that is trying to help grow important community businesses like Great Scott in Allston deserves attention.

I also thought Nick's message on internal diversity was one of the better takes (blunt & honest) I'd seen from a CEO: https://medium.com/@nick_97468/our-team-is-all-white-and-its...

Wish them the best of luck!
