On this episode of the Startup of the Year Podcast, we catch up
with Cooper Harris, the founder, and CEO of Klickly, an A.I.
impulse-payments platform. Cooper invented a payment layer that
leverages machine-learning to make purchasing directly within
digital UIs possible. This significant innovation creates a huge
efficiency in the market – the platform's machine-learning
identifies payment situations and uses sophisticated cross-origin
calls to facilitate the transaction.
As such, she has been invited to share her insights at
international summits including the United Nations, CES, Cannes
Lions, SXSW, ShopTalk, Sundance, Los Angeles TechWeek, London
Technology Conference, and Jason Calacanis’ LAUNCH Scale. Ms.
Harris speaks on topics including FinTech / Retail Tech / MarTech,
fostering women in STEM, and disrupting the status quo using
technology/innovation.
We also hear some segments from some of our Established Team
members. Our VP of Engagement at Established, Rich Maloy, provides
some advice with the VC Minute and our VP of Programs, Lori Thiel,
provides a tip for startups looking to get found. Also, our Co-CEO,
Jen Consalvo, provides insight about starting a company, and our
Director of Partnerships, Jacqui Dietrich, provides an update about
our Partner Programs and specifically discusses the following:

Startup of the Year helps diverse, emerging startups, founding
teams, and entrepreneurs push their company to the next level. We
are a competition, a global community, and a resource.
Startup of the Year is also a year-long program that searches the
country for a geographically diverse set of startups from all
backgrounds and pulls them together to compete for the title of
Startup of the Year.
The program includes a number of in-person and virtual events,
including our annual South By Southwest startup pitch event and
competition. All of which culminate at our annual Startup of the
Year Summit, where the Startup of the Year winner is announced,
along with an opportunity at a potential investment.
