ANN ARBOR –

HiveLend was awarded Best of Boot Camp at the conclusion of Ann Arbor SPARK’s

26th Entrepreneur Boot Camp. HiveLend is

a web-platform enabling communication between farmers and beekeepers through a

proprietary, matching algorithm.

chosen as winner by a panel of investors and industry experts who rated Boot

Camp participants’ pitches. Ann Arbor SPARK’s Boot Camp program is funded by the

Ann Arbor/Ypsilanti SmartZone.

“Ann Arbor

SPARK’s Entrepreneur Boot Camp Bootcamp was instrumental in HiveLend’s

evolution this winter,” said Nicholas Zajciw, HiveLend founder. “The feedback

we received throughout Boot Camp was invaluable and helped us to refine

HiveLend as a whole. I am especially thankful for the work my drill instructor,

Mark Ritz, put into ensuring our success.”

latest Boot Camp. A bi-annual program, Boot Camp has assisted more than 500
