Burns Writes Column About the Growth of the Drone Industry for Entrepreneur Magazine

Peter J. Burns, III, founder and CEO of Burns Funding - a venture debt company that helps entrepreneurs and investors obtain funding for their businesses, has authored an insightful column about the growth of the drone industry for Entrepreneur Magazine.

Entitled "Drones Are Transforming Industries: But Here Are 5 Things Entrepreneurs Should Know" the column was published live today on Entrepreneur.com and can be viewed here at https://www.entrepreneur.com/science-technology/5-things-entrepreneurs-should-know-before-investing-in/479986.

Burns speaks from experience, having taken a stake in The Droning Company, a three-sided marketplace - an online job agency for drone pilots, a resource for entities seeking expert pilots for their projects and ongoing needs, and a vehicle for industry participants to communicate their value proposition.

"The Droning Company is really quite impressive," said Burns, III, the CEO and founder of Burns Funding. "It has created a robust marketplace in an industry that is set to grow exponentially in the coming years. And it is just the tip of the iceberg as far as other investments go in the industry."

Besides becoming a part-owner, Burns, through Burns Funding (https://burnsfunding.com/), has also provided The Droning Company with unsecured funding. setting the stage for a powerful growth phase for the company.

In the last decade, Burns Funding has facilitated access to growth capital for dozens of other companies.

Most recently, he has adopted the unconventional approach of leveraging existing credit card capacity to provide an immediate cash infusion to companies. This approach, along with Burns Funding's innovative commitment to service the borrower's debt, allows companies to immediately capitalize on business opportunities, while awaiting conventional unsecured funding.

Burns' reputation in the alternative lending space has also caught the attention of both Entrepreneur and Forbes, two prestigious magazines that enlist Burns as a regular columnist.

ABOUT PETER J. BURNS III

Based in La Jolla, California, Peter J. Burns III grew up in a well-established New England family in New Canaan, Connecticut. He was briefly educated at the United States Military Academy Preparatory School at West Point, the University of Virginia (UVA), and finally, Harvard Business School's Owners and Presidents Management Program. While his two younger brothers went on to have very successful traditional business careers, Burns chose the life of a startup entrepreneur.

Burns started hundreds of businesses over the ensuing decades. In the early 2000s, he moved to Arizona and became a pro bono adjunct faculty member at the highly respected Barrett Honors College at Arizona State University. In 2006, Burns took his teaching practice across town to Grand Canyon University and its entrepreneurial founder Brent Richardson, where the two men would launch the nation's first College of Entrepreneurship at GCU.

In recognition of his work, the Arizona chapter of the Future Business Leaders of America named Burns its Businessperson of the Year in 2007.

Shortly thereafter, Burns started Club Entrepreneur to unite entrepreneurs in an "open-source entrepreneurship" platform. The Phoenix chapter attracted 10,000 members.

In 2016, Burns moved to the West Coast and started Burns Funding to help entrepreneurs secure hard-to-get funding for their businesses.

Taken as a whole, Burns says all the businesses have a "common thread."

"Every business I start represents my desire to help existing and would-be entrepreneurs reach their full potential," said Burns. "Too often, they give up because of a lack of capital. I set out to solve that problem and won't rest until every entrepreneur who needs money can secure it."
