John James, through Hayseed Ventures, is launching a startup lecture series that aims to provide insight in key areas for entrepreneurs.
The first event will take place at 5:30 p.m on Wednesday, Aug. 19 at the Hayseed Ventures headquarter located in the old post office on the Fayetteville square, according to a post on Innovate Arkansas’ blog.
James is the founder and former CEO of Acumen Brands of Fayetteville and earlier this year he launched Hayseed Ventures that will help provide seed money and mentoring expertise to other entrepreneurial startups. Hayseed is in the process of raising $6 million that will serve as a starter funding base.
James hopes to enlist other guest speakers for this program and he is also working with Startup Junkie, the new Innovation Hub and the Fayetteville Chamber of Commerce on this project.
