Background

About Jenna Buehler

I help companies break through sales plateaus, enter new markets, and build brand awareness that drives measurable growth. My approach blends strategy, execution, and deep industry relationships to accelerate results for startups and established businesses alike. In 2015, I launched the largest privately funded technology incubator in the Southeast, built on decades of relationships with the region’s most active early-stage venture capitalists. Unlike most incubators—which often operate as coworking spaces—ours offers highly customized programming designed for each company’s lifecycle stage. A key differentiator? The mentor programming is 100% free—no strings, no equity stake. Each mentor is a seasoned entrepreneur with real-world experience. This creates a culture of trust and long-term engagement, where maturing companies return to reinvest in the next generation of founders with hands-on support. Backed by serial entrepreneurs and investors, the incubator provides founders with a network they can trust and a faster path to funding. The results: Companies have raised $65M+ in private funding and achieved $120M+ in exits. Current members represent a combined valuation of $300M. Raised $1M+ from public and private sectors to launch our 501(c)(3) nonprofit efforts. Vetted and supported 120+ high-tech companies, accelerating growth across multiple stages. Cultivated a give-first mentor culture that fuels sustainable ecosystem growth. Forged strategic partnerships nationwide and delivered 100+ programs and events for founders. Managed the renovation of a property into a thriving hub now home to member companies.
