Similarly, the timing could have been better for fayVen, a Tampa area-based company that sets up venues for pop-up shops. With help from mentor Dr. Andrew Gold, co-founder of Hillsborough Community College’s InLab, fayVen pivoted temporarily to a virtual small business showcase.
“The gist of fayVen is live events in public places. He helped us do this virtual pivot,” says April Caldwell, who runs fayVen with her husband Aaron. “We got to showcase small businesses from all over the country, not just in Tampa.”
