Ken was a wealth of knowledge. He help us understand the New Mexico market in a clearer way. He helped us identify multiple opportunities, connected us directly to contacts, and provided numerous resources. The value we received as a startup business would have cost us hundreds of dollars elsewhere. We are grateful for his guidance. Chris Jones 

Ken Jackson met with my founding business partner, Chris, and me for a virtual meeting that was initially scheduled to last 30 minutes. The purpose of the meeting was to introduce our climate technology startup and explore potential avenues for funding. We were particularly interested in gaining insights from Ken on how to connect with the business community in New Mexico. Chris and I first met Ken back in December at the Qstation Lab, where we had the opportunity to pitch our company to a diverse audience. The meeting ended up being longer than 30 minutes, but it still felt like there was so much more to cover, even though he touched on everything we wanted to discuss and more. During our meeting tonight, Ken proved to be not only a receptive listener but also an engaging participant, asking a variety of insightful questions that helped steer the conversation into valuable territory. He offered us a wealth of information that we can implement immediately in our startup. His expertise shone through as he brainstormed different strategies tailored to various industries, highlighting innovative approaches that could propel our venture forward. As the meeting wrapped up, I took a moment to review my notes, and several key takeaways stood out to me: 1) Envisioning how we would achieve our financial goals in five years; 2) Exploring innovative methods applicable to different industries; 3) Considering the potential for establishing a business pension plan; 4) Recognizing the importance of having challenging conversations; 5) Understanding the value of transparency, and 6) Staying focused on the objective of securing funding. Overall, the virtual meeting felt like a high-level coaching, educational, and training session that seemed divinely tailored to our needs and validated our efforts thus far. I am genuinely excited about the prospect of working closely with Ken throughout this year and am eager to apply the insights he shared with us. I would highly recommend Ken to any business owner.
