Nashville startup raises $5.5M in seed round

Project Admission, a Nashville-based sports ticketing technology platform, raised $5.5 million in a recent seed funding round, according to a spokeswoman for the company.

“We put our stake in the ground [when Covid began],” co-founder Stephen Glicken said in an interview with Forbes. “We didn’t pivot. We didn’t become a live streaming business. There was a lot of pressure at that moment to figure out what to do. I stuck my stake in the ground and said, ‘Look, if you have any eye to history, these things end. I don’t know when it’s going to end, but they do end.’”
