Hey Builders! In today’s edition of OHUBNext, we turn the lens on a founder story that shows what’s possible. In most industries, compliance has been dismissed as red tape. QMS2GO saw something different — the chance to turn it into a growth engine. In 2023, engineers Onega Ulanova and Konstantin Dolgan co-founded QMS2GO to reinvent quality management with AI. Their mission was both simple and bold. They set out to automate the grind of compliance and give managers back their time. Ulanova now leads as CEO, steering a vision where compliance becomes not a burden, but a competitive advantage. That vision first took root inside OHUB’s New Energy Technology Incubator (NETI) in New Orleans. There, Ulanova and Dolgan did what founders do best — refine, pitch, and push with relentless focus. By Demo Day, they had sharpened their model, won $25,000 in early-stage investment, and left with something even more valuable: the validation and momentum to keep building. ⏩ Fast forward to today — QMS2GO is making big moves. They’ve landed at Techstars Minneapolis, one of the world’s top accelerators, where they’ve: ▪️ Engaged more than 50 mentors from Fortune 500 executives to manufacturing leaders ▪️ Completed a government subcontract proving their compliance backbone in action ▪️ Benefited from a sister-company SBA contract, which opened doors to regional manufacturers as potential early adopters ▪️ Begun preparing their next raise ahead of Techstars Demo Day this December For OHUB, QMS2GO is proof that the pipeline works. From a spark in New Orleans to the Techstars stage, this is inclusive innovation in action: underestimated founders solving critical problems and thriving with the right platform behind them. The bigger lesson? Programs matter. QMS2GO came through OHUB’s NETI, built early traction, and leveraged that momentum into Techstars. That same pathway is available today through our High-Growth Company Building Certificate — a program designed to give founders the tools, frameworks, and investor-readiness strategies to scale from idea to investment. This is more than a spotlight. It’s a roadmap. And QMS2GO shows what’s possible when builders get access, early investment, and support at the right time. 🗣️ One thing we’re going to do is build over here — and you’re invited to join us.
