Prepare to be inspired as we join forces with Drew Tulchin, the mastermind behind the New Mexico Angels Investors Network, for a deep dive into the profound effects of local investing on both communities and the business world. We celebrate a decade of insights from Impact Alpha, while also shedding light on the darker aspects of corporate dominance in live entertainment, weighing in on the monumental lawsuit the US Department of Justice has brought against Live Nation. Our journey with Drew doesn't stop there; we honor the bold steps taken by Illinois Governor JB Pritzker to clear medical debt, a move that promises to lift many from financial despair and serve as a beacon for the kind of change that can come from mindful governance.

Unlock the potential of impact investments and business sustainability as we spotlight the National Coalition for Community Capital's role in nurturing Michigan's startup culture, and marvel at Drew's transition from Meow Wolf's CFO to leading angel investors into a future where businesses serve more than just their bottom lines. We cast a critical eye on the significance of B Corporations and their parallel to organic certification, reinforcing the need for integrity in our marketplaces. This episode isn't just about dollars and cents; it's about how we measure our true value through happiness indexes, the UN's Sustainable Development Goals, and triple-bottom-line businesses that cherish profit, people, and the planet alike. Join us on this enlightening path to discover how investment can be a powerful tool for societal evolution.
