Techstars SummerTech: hot tech & cool gear to survive this steamy summer, all from the Techstars network

Summer is the height of the moving season, and that means your old furniture is out, and the new is in — at great expense and inconvenience. Break the cycle! Rent your furniture instead from Fernish.

Fernish is especially great for college and grad students, recent grads who are still moving every couple of years, or those who prefer to live life as an adventure, without being tied down by too many possessions.

Just recently, Fernish entered our mentorship-driven Techstars Los Angeles Accelerator as part of Techstars Class 139. Fernish Co-founder and CPO Lucas Dickey is psyched: “Straight out the frying pan into the fryer, the goal’s to be LA’s number one furniture supplier. (Shout out to those who caught the Jay-Z reference!)”

When we asked Lucas if Fernish had hit any recent milestones, he was similarly effervescent:

“Shoot — we’ve been accepted into Techstars LA! What a milestone, amiright!? And with our website only being up and fully running for 100 days now, we’re at 50 subscribers — that’s recurring revenue coming in almost every day of the month!”

Fernish has just started their Techstars accelerator, but Lucas is already full of fond memories of how we’re helping his company succeed. He reminisces about a Q&A session held by Anna Barber, Managing Director of Techstars LA: I reached out and asked if we could fernish the stage with accent chairs, side tables and a coffee table and get a ‘sponsorship’ shout-out. Anna did her best QVC pitch at the end of the presentation and made us sound 10x better than we were at that time.”

Lucas, man, we love your energy, love your hustle. You’re gonna be a star: a Techstar.
