Haatch Celebrating Entrepreneurs

Celebrating Entrepreneurs is a video series from Haatch showcasing entrepreneurs from the Haatch portfolio and ecosystem.

Entrepreneurs are critical to our economic future. They not only have the ideas, but the courage to step out and create new businesses. Businesses that create jobs, generate taxes and benefit whole communities.

At Haatch we believe that what entrepreneurs do should be celebrated and we want to encourage others to take this step for themselves.
