Laura Baverman: Hello from 36/86 South where startups, music & hockey collide

It was an early morning at RDU Terminal 1 on Monday, but fun seeing friends from Square 1 Bank, Pendo, Reveal Mobile, GoldenKey and Bull City Venture Partners all heading to 36/86 South in Nashville, a conference aimed to be the largest tech event in the Southeast.

Reveal Mobile, a Raleigh-based mobile ad tech startup, and GoldenKey, a Durham startup with a first-of-its-kind real estate platform, are among six North Carolina startups pitching in a competition happening throughout the three day festival at the Schermerhorn Symphony Center in the heart of Music City.

The others include RevBoss and Cathedral Leasing, both of Durham, Savii Care of Raleigh and Curu of Charlotte. On the line is $50,000 and access to all sorts of investors from around the country.

3686 South, named after Nashville’s coordinates on a map, happens before the CMA Music Festival each year in downtown Nashville.

Besides pitches, the conference has speakers, panels and workshops tailored to entrepreneurs and investors in the Southeast.
