Recognizing the MFF Member Community
As we look at 2022, we couldn’t be more proud of all that we’ve done as a statewide network of founders and investors. Our vision is that Michigan is the most successful, inclusive, and community-minded startup ecosystem in the country so we’re excited to be building momentum towards this effort with the collaboration of our members!
On Dec 7, MFF gathered at the Fowling Warehouse in Ypsilanti (fowling=football+bowling) to hang out, have fun, and celebrate a great year. We also developed five annual awards to recognize the incredible leadership and accomplishments of our members and their impact on the ecosystem. This year, we are honored to recognize:
- Most Engaged: Doug Neal, eLab Ventures
- Top Mentor: David Corcoran, Censys
- Impact Leader: Darren Riley, JustAir
- Up & Coming Founder: Moody Mattan, BrandXR
- Roots & Wings (Michigan boomeranger!): Katie Hall, Claira
MFF is a member-led, founder-first forum and these five leaders showcase what this community is all about. Thank you to all of our 70 members for a great year and we’re excited for all that’s to-come in 2023!
