Boom Supersonic, a Denver-based aerospace company, has successfully completed its first supersonic flight yesterday. The company, initially funded by Silicon Valley investors, represents a significant milestone in American tech innovation. Led by founder Blake Scholl, who previously worked at Groupon, Boom Supersonic aims to revolutionize air travel with its supersonic technology. The Series A funding round for Boom was notably led by JD Vance, who transitioned from Silicon Valley to Ohio.
I didn't know Blake was a PM before founding @boomaero. He inspired me to "just do things". https://t.co/wbMnh8S0ps
I first reached out to Chris in 2019 after hearing his 'How I Built This' episode with Logic. His obsession with spotting and elevating world-class talent—musicians, founders, and beyond—is rare. Any founder would be lucky to work with him https://t.co/iqh75ZhxnJ
From discovering talented musicians to spotting exceptional founders—big fan of Chris and excited to work on deals together! https://t.co/VGdO26wKWI
