Helping Your Business Start, Grow and Succeed
"“The 1:1 sessions with consultants was very useful for helping me tackle a specific problem rather quickly. The access to a rolodex of potential advisors for my business helped navigate tricky sales negotiations, partnership, and a successful acquisition.” –– Chad Kihm, CEO

MyMetaFi

MyMetaFi is a platform where users can pool money together with others to buy, use, and sell an NFT without having to pay full price. CEO and founder of MyMetaFi, Chad Kihm, studied industrial engineering at Cal Poly, but his plan was always to study business on the side in order to e#ectively communicate with all members of the workforce. As a former Cal Poly CIE Incubator member and active SBDC client for the past nine years, Chad has successfully started and sold one venture and returned in 2023 for pitch prep assistance while competing as a "nalist in AngelCon with his newest startup, MyMetaFi.
