Episode Synopsis
About this Episode:
Purpose is about connecting good people with amazing opportunities. By giving rather than taking, we add value to people’s lives. And by adding to theirs, we get to add to ours as well.
About the Guest:
Neal Bloom is the CEO of Rising Tide Partners and Managing Partner at Interlock Capital. Through his grassroots effort in multiple organizations, Mr. Bloom has helped build a tech community that helps entrepreneurs and companies grow and succeed in San Diego. He chaired local nonprofit Startup San Diego and has helped grow San Diego Startup Week, which has helped inspire thousands of local San Diegans to take the leap in becoming an entrepreneur. He is an investor, serves as a mentor to countless entrepreneurs, and is actively engaged in growing and promoting San Diego's thriving tech ecosystem.
Mr. Bloom previously:
- Co-founded San Diego software company Portfolium - which was acquired in 2019 - to help new college grads promote themselves
- Launched Hired.com in San Diego to attract tech talent to the region
- Created a venture capital podcast (Tacos & Tech), and a newsletter and tech blog (Fresh Brewed Tech) to continue to bring venture capital and businesses to San Diego, elevating the community as a top 10 tech and startup hub.
Neal then went to work building an investment community of domain expert operators, to close the gap between capital and subject matter experts; this group, Interlock Capital, has deployed $3.6M into 17 companies in 17 months.
