The Kickstart Podcast


Jun 6, 2023

It’s easy to get caught up in defining your startup with industry buzz words. We’re speaking with a founder who is fighting against being placed in a box. Join us in today’s conversation with Riley Hughes, Founder & CEO of Trinsic, and investor Dalton Wright of Kickstart (a VC firm for startups in Utah, Colorado, and the Mountain West) as we bring you both sides of a Perfect Pitch. In this episode, we’ll talk about:

Kickstart’s announcement on opening an office in Denver this summer

What digital identity means and how it impacts you and your privacy

How Riley transitioned from a scooter handlebar startup to sovereign identity

Why entrepreneurs shouldn’t worry about being the “pioneer problem-solver” in a market

Why many founders shy away from being labeled as a Web3 company
