Being a founder often feels like you’re building the plane midflight. You’re juggling fundraising, product-market fit, marketing strategy, hiring — while quietly wondering if you’re even doing it right.
Tech Zone Daily AllStage 2025, which is happening on July 15 at the SoWa Power Station in Boston, is built to answer those questions. Whether you’re pitching VCs, recruiting a killer team, or trying to make sense of your startup’s finances (and your own), All Stage offers actionable insights from people who’ve lived it. Expect main-stage conversations, deep-dive workshops, and tactical networking designed to help you scale with confidence.
One of the voices you’ll want to hear from is Jason Kraus, founder of Prepare 4 VC and one of the most committed startup ecosystem builders out there.

Why is Kraus speaking at All Stage?
Because he’s made a career out of helping founders break through.
Kraus launched his first company in college, and he’s never looked back. Through Prepare 4 VC, he’s worked with thousands of early-stage entrepreneurs across the globe, helping them sharpen their pitch, validate their market, and get investor-ready. He’s also a partner at the EQx Fund and Equity Venture Partners, where he helps founders explore new, often overlooked funding pathways.
But Kraus’ impact goes beyond capital strategy. He’s the engine behind founder communities like Startup Grind Boston, Startup Weekend, and the Startup Oasis Network, and he built the Breakthrough Program, a 10-week journey that helps founders get past execution bottlenecks and build real traction.
