  CI brought together a group of trailblazing female founders in our portfolio and innovation ecosystem to discuss how they are disrupting the wellness industry through their respective ventures, including obesity management, personalized meal planning and reinventing fast food. The discussion, moderated by Courtney White, president of Butternut Media and former president of Food Network, features Dr. Katherine Saunders from FlyteHealth, Lauren Driscoll from NourishedRx and Shannon Allen from grown.
  Once again, CI hit the road to showcase our small but mighty network of entrepreneurs and state partners with the second annual Tour de Connecticut, a week-long, 200-mile bike ride across the state. CEO Matt McCooe, board chair Michael Cantor and special guest riders visited CI portfolio companies, hosted panels and networking events, connected with over 250 ecosystem members, and stopped by local attractions along the way.
