In this episode of Founders Future, with host Jae Carnacion, we sit down with Kevin Packer, CEO of Invest Tech Consulting, to explore how he's revolutionizing grant funding for tech innovators. With a unique background spanning marine biology and grant consulting, Kevin shares his journey from Israel to Argentina and how he helps AI, biotech, and renewable energy startups secure non-dilutive funding through programs like SBIR and international grants. He reveals the challenges of navigating shifting political landscapes (like recent U.S. grant freezes) and why he believes AI tools—while transformative—will never replace the human touch in strategic grant consulting.
Kevin also dives into his "slow-scaling" philosophy, balancing a flood of client demand with quality service, and how he’s leveraging partnerships with other consultancies to expand his reach. From his unexpected pivot into entrepreneurship to his pragmatic use of AI for decoding complex grant applications, Kevin offers candid advice: "Keep pushing—if others are succeeding in your industry, there’s always a way for you to break through too."
