Hi Chris,
As we read the article, the news was even better. Charter Life Sciences in Cincinnati and Palo Alto, CA also got some money. I think your point was NEW VCs opening up in Ohio, so Charter Life’s existing offices don’t fall in that bucket. Still - it’s good to hear that more and more money is being committed to Ohio and the region for technology investment. We just be doing something right!
