Leadership
Peter Marsh
Flywheel Cofounder
Peter Marsh is a founding Member of Flywheel Coworking, a coworking innovation space for entrepreneurs and start-ups, designed and operated in partnership with premier educational institutions and local community partners. Flywheel’s locations include downtown Winston-Salem (NC), Concord (NC) at the Cabarrus Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurship, and a planned location in Greenville (SC). We also designed and operated the coworking facility at the Hurt Hub @ Davidson before transferring operations to Davidson College. Our network of innovation centers continues to grow throughout North Carolina, South Carolina and Virginia in markets that have the right ingredients and community support for early-stage entrepreneurs.
Peter is also a founding Director of the Flywheel Foundation, which promotes healthy entrepreneurship ecosystems through events, program partnerships, a learning management system, and early-stage investment programming. As the Chair, he administers the annual New Ventures Challenge for startup business ideas and founded the New Ventures Accelerator.
