Welcome to Episode 58 of SunCast!
Today on SunCast, we are digging into the inner workings of a company (Wunder Capital) many of you have probably begun to work with, and who has clearly done a great job of gaining traction since it's founding back in 2013. For you entrepreneurs out there, I ask Bryan a ton of questions specifically about the who/what/how/when/why of starting and growing his business. Bryan Birsic and his co-founders have grown Wunder Capital to be one of the fastest-growing and useful platforms for funding commercial solar projects in the US right now.
Tune in today as we discuss:
Founding Bain's Green Team
Why Wunder is different from other platforms like Mosaic
How Wunder is Funding Commercial Solar
And, what Bryan believes is the most Critical decision every Founder makes
If you have ever gotten stuck trying to figure out how to convert from residential to commercial projects with scale, or if you have had deals fall apart b/c the customer didn't want a cash deal and neither of you could bring financing to bear, stick around for today's episode, because I think you'll want to hear what Bryan and his team are up to!
