Middle Tech

Building a company isn't glamorous - it's brutal, uncertain, and rarely as fast as the headlines suggest. But it's also where real growth happens.In this Season 9 kickoff, Logan and Evan sit down to reflect on a pivotal 2025 and share what's ahead. Logan announces he's joined Valent full-time after months as a contractor and angel investor, while Evan shares updates on scaling the AI-powered RFP platform now landing major enterprise customers.The conversation covers the real cost of entrepreneurship, why Logan's attempt to launch DevelopLou didn't pan out, how AI is transforming B2B sales without replacing the fundamentals, and Logan's new "Mission Critical" content series focused on energy, defense, and advanced manufacturing. They also touch on DevelopLex's breakout partnerships with Commerce Lexington and Downtown Lexington Partnership, and why Middle Tech will keep going - even if it never becomes a big business.Hosted by Logan JonesMiddle Tech is proudly supp
