Heath Cowart, founder of Real Digital Productions, has announced their sponsorship of the Asheville chapter of Google’s Startup Grind. RDP supports monthly chapter meet-ups featuring local business leaders and the hard lessons they learned on the road to success.
The Startup Grind is a global
initiative with over 400,000 members in over 85 countries. Local entrepreneurs
Mike McKearin and Elijah Elkins are the Asheville city directors.
“Asheville was recently named one of
the best cities to launch a startup, next to Austin, New York City and
Boulder,” said Elkins. “Mike and I felt that connecting our local community to
such a powerful world-wide resource was necessary to continue this trend as a
hotspot for entrepreneurs. We were thrilled that Heath, Melinda and the RDP
team wanted to join us in our efforts.”
“The underlying mission of Real
Digital Productions parallels that of the Startup Grind,” said Cowart. “We are
trying to support entrepreneurs and startups on their road to greatness and
success so the partnership made complete sense. It’s been an incredibly
enjoyable experience working with Mike and Elijah and we’re looking forward to
the future of this local chapter of the Startup Grind.”
The next meeting of the Asheville
Startup Grind will feature Tim Montgomery of Bluemont on Tuesday, March 22 at
