Flyover Event

Flyover is a reverse pitch competition spotlighting VCs investing in the great American comeback.

[Institute for American Manufacturing & Tech @IAMTPolicy]

Manufacturing employs more veterans than any other private industry: nearly 1 million of them.

The technical training, discipline and teamwork that come from service carry straight onto the shop floor. To every veteran building this country a second time: thank you.

Happy Veterans Day. 🇺🇸

@ScottNolan Many people are saying this!

@AlexKittoe Einfach Leiwand

@samspike_ Better than 80% of "architects": the man with an eyeball

@8vc The children yearn to work, innovate, create, and build!

End GenZ unemployment, they're hungry!

[Flyover Event @buildflyover]

@DSutton1986 Idk, I think I'd rather cover the entire landmass of Nebraska in expensive blue rectangles. That's good for Mother Earth right??

@JohnCMalloy4 What I like about machine shops?

They have a big American flag on the wall.
The guys working in them have real know-how.
What they make blows Chinese products out of the water.

We've got work to do, but so much groundwork laid already

[Flyover Event @buildflyover]

Those are good jobs too.

Who earns more? Producers or servants?

We were sold a lie. Time to knock the dust off the Rust Belt.

Flyover is a reverse pitch competition bringing together investors and builders who care about America's hard tech future.

Remember: this is the same argument that my generation was told 26 years ago with the nonsensical “service economy”, and look where we are now.

@sullydoesitall The LinkedIn coffee chat if it wasn't uncool

[Flyover Event @buildflyover]

@JonathanMcPike To a whole generation or two of young Americans hearing, feeling, "we don't need you."

Don't despair.

Live in your parents' basement. Use their garage for your startup. Join someone else's hair-brained scheme to build space robots. You can DO stuff.

Show them your potential.

@BenjiBacker No more looting. Those lands belond to We the People.

[Flyover Event @buildflyover]

@ryjlocal Always has been.

[Flyover Event @buildflyover]

A napping couch, a whiteboard, a command center, and a CNC machine en-route is THE vibe.

[Dylan Small @_DylanSmall_]

We have a building and manufacturing space now!

Things are getting exciting guys!

Additive and CNC equipment is being ordered. Meanwhile, parts are being made and hardware is coming together.

In the video showed is a small sneak peak into our software showing the design tab.

Our analysis software is outpacing the giants on both speed and accuracy. Soon I will share some visuals from those runs.

@nathanabauman Dreams were made real at Pip's Diner, I just know it

[Flyover Event @buildflyover]

@Andrew_Moser Part of what's at work here is a protective attitude Midwesterners and the like have.

They remember the how the rust belt got rusty.

It's our fault if they distrust any sudden investment from out of state.

Flyover is where we can bring them back together.

[Flyover Event @buildflyover]

@DeveloperHarris Nobody has innovated on homebuilding in years. We're still living in tyvek and plywood tupperware containers that light off like a matchstick, don't last, and cost 400K because... someone said so.

Time to rethink our housing

[Flyover Event @buildflyover]

@RedBalloonWork Reject the demoralizing paper-pushing cubicle job.

Embrace drafting tables, idea whiteboards, and startup life.

[Flyover Event @buildflyover]

@ahmedshubber25 Looks like it was made for moon mining.

No, just made for driving around Iowa.

[Flyover Event @buildflyover]

@garrxttt "Young Americans don't want to work!"

"Well where did the good manufacturing jobs go?"

"Don't worry about it."

@hiranoi_nomade How do you say "greatest ally" in Japanese?
