South Florida has long been a magnet for entrepreneurs, investors, and innovators — and nowhere is that spirit more alive than on Go Fund Yourself, the hit business-meets-entertainment series airing on Cheddar TV. As the show kicks off Season 4, fans across Boca Raton and beyond are tuning in to watch two groundbreaking companies take the stage: Patriot Critical Minerals and Opti-Harvest.
The new season promises the same energy and inspiration that’s made Go Fund Yourself a fan favorite in South Florida’s startup community — a region known for blending lifestyle, innovation, and hustle in equal measure.
Mining the Future: Patriot Critical Minerals
First up is Patriot Critical Minerals, a company developing America’s largest SEC-compliant tungsten resource in Nevada. While it may sound like a story from the heartland, its impact reaches far beyond state lines. Tungsten is essential in industries like defense, aerospace, and clean energy — and Patriot’s mission to build a sustainable, domestic mining operation speaks to a growing national focus on self-reliance and innovation.
As supply chains remain uncertain globally, Patriot is positioning itself as a cornerstone of America’s next industrial revolution. For South Florida entrepreneurs who thrive on foresight and resilience, it’s a powerful reminder that innovation doesn’t always happen in tech labs — sometimes it starts deep underground.
Agriculture Reinvented: Opti-Harvest
The second featured company, Opti-Harvest, brings a burst of green technology to the screen. Based in California, Opti-Harvest pioneers climate-smart agricultural tools that help farmers harness sunlight more efficiently through its patented Opti-Filter™ technology. The result? Higher yields, reduced water usage, and lower labor costs — all crucial in a time when sustainability and food security are global priorities.
The company’s approach combines science, data, and design thinking — values that resonate strongly with South Florida’s growing base of clean-tech and ag-tech investors. As regional incubators and universities continue to push STEM innovation, startups like Opti-Harvest remind viewers that smart technology can transform even the world’s oldest industries.
The Titans Behind the Movement
At the heart of Go Fund Yourself are its three Titans — business leaders whose mentorship and investment experience fuel the show’s success:
- Rory J. Cutaia, creator of the Go Fund Yourself show, whose vision turned pitching into interactive television.
- Jayson Waller, the outspoken serial entrepreneur and best-selling author, known for his “no excuses” mindset and dynamic storytelling.
- David Meltzer, globally recognized investor, author, and speaker who brings heart, wisdom, and strategy to every episode.
Together, they’ve made Go Fund Yourself a bridge between entrepreneurship and entertainment — where founders can gain national exposure, mentorship, and access to a community of buyers and investors ready to take action.
Why South Florida Loves This Show
South Florida’s startup scene has exploded over the past decade, from the Boca Raton Innovation Campus (BRiC) to FAU’s incubator The Runway, and a surge of local incubators and venture meetups. Entrepreneurs here understand the power of storytelling and visibility — and that’s exactly what Go Fund Yourself delivers.
The show’s unique format allows founders to share their passion on camera, connect directly with viewers, and even attract funding in real time. It’s not just about pitching; it’s about presence — the kind South Florida business leaders know can turn opportunity into momentum.
“Exposure is the new currency,” says creator Rory Cutaia. “When you combine national visibility with investor access and mentorship, incredible things happen — and that’s what Go Fund Yourself is all about.”
