“I began working with the team at Jennings Kallen Advisors in early 2021.  They helped us develop our business plan, go to market strategy and pitch deck and were instrumental in sourcing close to $1M in equity and non-dilutive funding to ramp up our company operations.  Jon and his team are a vital part of our company team and continue to assist us as fractional business development and COO resources.”

“Jon Kallen provided essential and critical guidance to funding programs that allowed our fledgling start-up business to take flight.  We were blown away by Jon’s extensive network of contacts, knowledge of different funding programs available, and kindness – he is a pillar of energy and can-do attitude that was a breath of fresh air.  My husband and I consider ourselves to be extremely lucky to have worked with Jon as our consultant (super hero is an accurate description) – and honored to consider him a dear friend.  We look forward to working with Jon in the years to come as our company continues to grow, knowing we will be in very good hands.”
