#0104 - Deepen Parikh of Courtside Ventures Talks About Their New $100M Fund

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">On this episode of the Startup of the Year Podcast, we hear from Deepen Parikh, who is one of the founding partners at Courtside Ventures (</span><a href= "https://www.courtsidevc.com/"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">www.courtsidevc.com</span></a><span style= "font-weight: 400;">). Courtside Ventures is an early-stage VC fund, investing across sports, collectibles, wellness/fitness and gaming, and they just announced their new $100M Fund. </span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">We also again shine a spotlight on one of the startups from our community and that company is Wherewithal, who was a Top 5” Startup at the SOTY Summit in Memphis in 2019. They are now selling their bras at Nordstroms. Which is kind of a big deal. I believe they also got a patent for their innovations in undergarments.
