What better way to start off a new week than to take a quick look back at the big headlines from last week? Our Monday “Fund” Day series can get you all caught up on the major startup headlines from last week…and get you prepped for all the important events and deadlines you need to know for your business. Here’s what happened the first full week of February 2024:
Who is in building mode
It was a quiet week for the Southeast venture world, with little noise for companies announcing major rounds. But that doesn’t mean it has been a quiet week across the startup community. Here are the teams in growth mode right now:
* Fanbase, an Atlanta-based social media livestreaming startup, rolled out its new Fanbase Audio feature on web and mobile devices. This means that listeners don’t have to download the app in order to connect with content. Want to see the feature in action and catch up on the Super Bowl news? Here is a link to check out.
* Momnt, an Atlanta-based fintech startup, announced that Jason Rozenblat has taken on the role of Senior Vice President of Sales.
* Atlanta tech success story Salesloft announced the appointment of Mark Niemiec as its new Chief Revenue Officer.
