Jordan Warnement credits her time working on former Fort Worth Mayor Betsy Price’s campaign to become County Judge with inspiring her to take on her current role at Techstars Physical Health Fort Worth, a business accelerator that helps entrepreneurs in the health care industry.
“I made the difficult decision to step away from the startup I was working with for eight years in pursuit of getting more involved locally and having a larger influence on the booming medical industry in Fort Worth,” Warnement says. “[On Price’s campaign] I had the opportunity to work for one of the most experienced entrepreneurs and leaders in Fort Worth … and had the opportunity to meet many influential leaders in this city.”
At Techstars, Warnement has created and executes a three-month program, where entrepreneurs learn, grow, and are provided investor interactions to help companies reach new levels of opportunity.
According to Cameron Cushman, assistant vice president of innovative ecosystems at UNT Health Science Center, “Jordan is working to truly represent to [entrepreneurs] the culture and allure of Fort Worth and what we have to offer to entrepreneurs from across the planet.”
