The third Milwaukee Founder/Fest event will be March 24 at the Eagleknit Innovation Hub in Walker’s Point, the startup founder group announced Wednesday.
New this time, the group will award more than $2,500 to one participating startup founder that attendees will vote on. It will cost $10 per ballot and attendees can only vote once, Milwaukee Founder/Fest organizer Jeremy Fojut said. The winning founder will get $2,500 plus all of the money raised from the ballot sales.
“We just wanted to continue to evolve the event,” Fojut said, adding that he sees the voting system as a form of startup crowdfunding.
