In this episode, we're joined by Nick Mathews, the founder and CEO of Mainvest, where to date he has funded 400+ small businesses around the country. Nick is a visionary leader dedicated to rebuilding the American dream by empowering communities and small businesses with the capital they need to thrive. Nick talks about how his pivotal role in launching Uber in Boston helped him gain first hand insights into the economic challenges faced by local communities. He founded Mainvest to address these issues, with a commitment to a community-driven approach funding small businesses across the U.S.. Nick discusses the concept of locality and how to scale, how companies go through the underwriting process, and what’s got him excited for the world of alternative capital in the future.
