Blake Modersitzki joins Clint on this episode of the Silicon Slopes Podcast for a conversation about VC, tech, and all things Utah business. Blake shares his story of launching Utah Ventures and what the VC environment was like in Utah during the early 2000s. He talks about writing his first venture checks and what a journey it is to help tech startups flourish. They discuss the slippery slope that is deciding who can and can't make decisions at a company and why it's important to stay diligent in this industry. Utah's VC scene is booming and in the future, Blake hopes that collaboration will be everyone's focus as we celebrate entrepreneurship together. "I think that we are primed to be a leader in AI. We're seeing some amazing, early-stage AI companies right now."
