TixNix Presents at the Venture Capital Investment Competition

TixNix was selected by the University of Chicago Graduate School of Business Entrepreneurship & Venture Capital Group to present at the regional Venture Capital Investment Competition held at the GSB. Drew Massie, Founder and COO of TacitLogic, gave a presentation on TixNix and then fielded questions from the 6 student groups involved in the competition.

The VCIC is the nation's premiere strategy competition for venture-minded and entrepreneurial MBA students. The competition gives students a real-world venture capitalist experience - student teams interact with real entrepreneurs from real companies with real business plans. The experience exposes students to a variety of activities that ultimately must be integrated into a cohesive investment strategy to be pitched to real venture capitalists.

Drew Massie explains, "I was truly impressed by the event as well as the student groups themselves. They did an amazing job of evaluating TixNix from a venture capital perspective."
