After getting my license as a lawyer I started working in my family company (knitwear manufacturer with over 100M+ turnover) as a Brand Associate. I moved up to be a junior manager to create a structured organization. I started my own business in Web3 at the same time (a data company developing an LLM-navigated and AI-powered data platform for crypto investors). We raised 200K USD with a 5M valuation from one of the top VCs in Singapore and a well-known company in the US. After 2 years of my startup journey, I quit to focus on my MBA application and to help my family business.

I would add Columbia - they have a family business track (worth researching and considering). This will help with LOR's and some of the other considerations since I assume it may be tricky to get LOR's as a founder in your last venture.
P.S. Since you have a slightly lower GPA, would recommend looking into getting a stronger GMAT score or possibly GRE, whichever you can get closest to or above the school's average, depending on what your strengths are.
Good luck!
