Mike Sundermeier is the Program Manager for the mHUB Climate and EnergyTech Accelerator and is responsible for tech sourcing, evaluation, and program operations.

Mike's passion for helping early-stage founders came from his time at the University of Dayton, where as an undergrad, he was a part of the first cohort of Leonardo Enterprises, a university-ran incubator. Since then, he has worked at Worldwide startup accelerator organizations such as gener8tor and Techstars, along with Chicago-based tech and Innovation non-profit P33.

Mike is co-host of the podcast "Ventures by the Lake," which talks with Chicago-based founders, community leaders, and investors to showcase how to turn your side project into a business and a full-time job. When he is not working with founders, you can find him at one of the many Chicago beaches or in the stands at a White Sox game.
