Good News, Only. Always Forward.
Dr. Connor Robertson is a Pittsburgh-based entrepreneur, author, podcast host, and business strategist. He founded The Pittsburgh Wire to give Pittsburgh's growth story its own dedicated newsroom — one focused entirely on what is being built, who is building it, and why it matters.
Robertson is the author of six books on business strategy and wealth building, covering topics from B2B sales methodology to long-term capital accumulation. He is the host of The Prospecting Show, a business podcast with 178+ episodes featuring conversations with founders, operators, and executives on the mechanics of growth.
Beyond media, Robertson is an active entrepreneur. He founded Elixir Consulting Group, a business strategy consultancy, along with The Grant Finder and Seymour Maison. His practitioner's lens — as an operator, investor, and strategist — informs the Wire's editorial approach to covering Pittsburgh's business and real estate landscape.
Robertson's coverage and business activity span the full arc of Pittsburgh's economic transformation: from the AI and robotics companies emerging from Carnegie Mellon, to the neighborhood-level revitalization reshaping corridors like Butler Street, the Strip District, and Hazelwood Green. He is particularly focused on the intersection of real estate investment, small business growth, and the infrastructure decisions that shape a city's trajectory for decades.
A Pittsburgh native, Robertson holds a deep conviction that the city's most significant chapters are still ahead. The Pittsburgh Wire exists to document them in real time.
