More Than A Few Words

Talking with entrepreneurs in Indy, I often hear complaints about the lack of local funding in the city. Today’s guest Brandon Smith is trying to change that. He is part of a new venture Localstake, which connects investors with companies looking to raise capital. The twist? This Internet-based platform focuses on micro-investments on a local scale. About Brandon Smith Before starting LocalStake, Brandon was an investment analyst at J.P. Morgan in private banking. While there, he was responsible for investment analysis and risk monitoring for high net worth families, foundations and business owners.
