How these non-technical female founders are paving the way

We are excited to have mother daughter duo & Co-Founders of Mixtroz, Kerry Schrader & Ashlee Ammons, on our podcast! Ashlee & Kerry were the 37th and 38th black female founders to close a venture round of more than $1 million or more. Their HQ is in Birmingham, AL where Delia grew up & where Alison lives. They came to Birmingham for the Velocity Accelerator at Innovation Depot where they won the Birmingham Rise of the Rest competition (This was started by AOL Founder, Steve Case. Mixtroz is the only business from Alabama to win the competition) and ended up moving the headquarters to Birmingham. Kerry is an honoree of the 2019 CEO Awards from the Birmingham Business Journal, and they have won many other awards as well. http://mixtroz.com  Here is a link to Alison & Kerry's discussion on the joys & frustrations of aging: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EEoJO_NOvjI&feature=emb_logo
