Join Dr. Pablo Paredes Romero and guest Danny Bernstein as they delve into the untapped potential that is the Central Valley bioeconomy and plans to leverage innovation to revitalize the region. The founder and Managing Partner of HawkTower, Danny emphasizes the importance of equitable opportunities, accessible partnerships, and community outcomes integral to his investment strategy.
The Central Valley's agricultural legacy provides fertile ground for transformative technological solutions. With less than 1% of venture capital flowing to areas like Davis, Fresno, and Modesto, Danny's efforts to spur innovation and create lasting opportunities for under-leveraged regions are highlighted in this episode.
