David Morganthaler, founder of venture capital firm Morganthaler Ventures, spoke last Thursday at the Levin College Forum, which is focused this year on the theme Our Place in the Urban Age.

More than coffee shops and arts districts, innovation is what Northeast Ohio needs to revitalize its economic health, Morganthaler stated. “The bottom line is we must create jobs that are high paying.”

CSU Forum intern Erin Aleman posted a review of what Morganthaler said at the event in the GCBL Forum section, here.
