Burns Funding Equation, a Podcast, Features GenZ Entrepreneur Evan Hughes

Burns Funding, a venture debt lender that helps entrepreneurs and investors creatively obtain funding for their businesses, announced today the eighth episode of the Burns Funding Equation, a Podcast, which features Gen Z entrepreneur Evan Hughes.

Hughes is a Business Management Analyst in the defense industry, specializing in financial planning, data analysis, and strategic operations support. With a focus on efficiency and accuracy, he helps drive informed decision-making across complex projects that support national security objectives.

Hughes endeavors to leverage that skillset to become a successful entrepreneur.

"I want to break out of the 9-5 rat race," Hughes said. "Through the Burns Funding Method, I can accomplish that. One day I want to be an example to other young people, illustrating that anyone can be an entrepreneur."

"Evan's determination reminds me of myself when I was a budding entrepreneur," said Peter J. Burns, III, the founder and CEO of Burns Funding (https://burnsfunding.com/). "In inviting him as a guest on the podcast, we wanted to share his story with other young people."

Hughes was attracted to Burns Funding because of its unique approach to securing funding for its clients and then servicing that note through the Burns Funding Method.

The Method was highlighted recently in a story that appeared in the National Business Post here: https://www.nationalbusinesspost.com/burns-funding-is-helping-startups-secure-capital-at-zero-interest/

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."

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