A matchmaking app that pairs people with puppies and a startup developing a drone delivery service are the first two ventures funded by the Portal Fund, a program designed to “ignite South Alabama’s startup ecosystem.”
The Portal Fund has announced investments of $50,000 in Deuce Drone and $25,000 in Barkd. The fund is a program of Mobile-based Innovation Portal, a business incubator created by the Mobile Area Chamber of Commerce and an array of partners.
