Friday Nooner: Startup School In Session With DiffyQ’s Susan Mahlburg

Welcome to the Good Friday edition of the Friday Nooner—though in truth, any Friday with a new Nooner episode is a good one. This week, Primordial’s Jenn Summe sat in Joe’s chair (literally) because the GrepBeat Godfather is on a Spring Break trip with his kids to the nation’s capital.

Pete and Jenn stressed that the Very Early Bird rates for June 4’s Grep-a-palooza 3 expire this Sunday, March 31. You can get your tickets here. The Very Early Bird rates are $99 for Startup Founders/Employees and $199 for Everyone Else. On April 1, they go up to $149/$249, and on May 1 to $199/$299. So don’t wait!

Our guest was Susan Mahlburg, the Founder and CEO of Durham-based DiffyQ, an edtech platform that helps teachers better focus on the needs of individual students. We first profiled DiffyQ last October, shortly after she earned a $10K MICRO grant from NC DEA and shortly before we saw her pitch as part of CED’s GRO Incubator Demo Day. Also in 2023: Mahlburg participated in the Launch Chapel Hill accelerator and finished her MBA at UNC’s Kenan-Flagler, to go with her doctorate in education. Big year!
