Mike Kren

EightD Ventures
Fund Manager
Charlotte, NC
I invest in small to mid-sized companies. I am a numbers guy first and foremost, but vision is also crucial to me. If I can't find the right investment vehicle in a given space I am targeting, I start the company myself. When people ask me what I do for a living, I say..."How much time do you have?"
