Re-Broadcast: Marcy Capron of Polymathic and Junto

This is a re-broadcast of Charles Mudd's chat with Marcy Capron about her media production studio Polymathic, endeavors to help startups through Polymathic's Junto, the Chicago startup culture, advice to founders, and much more.

Marcy is Founder & CEO of Polymathic and Junto.  Prior to making her name in startup culture, she worked as a freelance photographer and director.

As its website states, Polymathic is a media production studio comprised of a group of talented people from various artistic and academic backgrounds who use their unique skills to create work that stands out.  "Specializing in providing the whole spectrum – design, development, photography and video – in house," Polymathic is a single source destination.  Its team of designers and developers have spent the last two years building web startups.  In doing so, it operates as a WordPress-dedicated studio, and builds all sites and apps using open-source platforms.  If you have not yet visited Polymathic online and perused its portfolio, do so now or most definitely before your next project.

In 2011, Polymathic began Junto to help build startups for nontechnical founders.  It "turns great ideas from passionate founders into successful startups [in] a structured process [using] Lean Startup principles to build viable products faster and cheaper."
