Founder Stories

“Volta One was a cauldron. And not just because the radiators were stuck on high. From the moment we took up residency in 2013, we felt the pressure to move quickly and advance our business.

There was always another resident company wanting to beat you in a pitch competition or recruit your talent. The competitive yet supportive atmosphere pushed us to build our product and pivot quickly. Ultimately, Dash Hudson found product-market fit and moved on from Volta.

It is an important part of our history and was integral to our success.”
