“Atlanta sounds like a strange place for a wine business, and it is,” I find myself saying to anyone who wonders about Enolytics’ home base of operations. “But Atlanta is also a fantastic place for a technology business.”

Which we are, most certainly. The technology hub of Atlanta has served as a deep well of talent for our team of engineers and developers. It also offers a robust network of entrepreneurs and innovators; we live among them, engage with them, and certainly draw energy and inspiration from them.

We all share information and connections across many channels locally, from webinars with Atlanta Ventures to articles in entrepreneur-focused media to podcasts, most recently a guest appearance on the nationally syndicated podcast The Shrimp Tank with Ted Jenkin & Lee Heisman.

Ted and Lee, also based in Atlanta, proactively look to interview entrepreneurs who combine street smarts and book smarts, to learn how to start, grow, and run a successful business. I was honored to join their lineup, and it was a really fun conversation that you can see via YouTube (yes, I did the recording from the Delta Sky Club in Terminal A in Atlanta!) or listen to the audio here or wherever you get your podcasts.

Just like The Shrimp Tank combines street smarts and book smarts, Enolytics combines technical know-how (in Atlanta) with boots-on-the-ground expertise at the epicenter of the wine industry (in Sonoma and San Francisco). It’s an ongoing balance, and a never-ending give-and-take, in every way.

Thank you, as always, for reading, for watching, and for listening too. As always, let us know what you think!
