Silicon Valley VC and Angel Conference January 19, 2010

Sponsored by Bingham McCutchen LLP

Every CEO wants to meet Early-Stage Venture Investors.
On Thursday, March 4, 2010 you will get your chance!

FundingPost has hosted 160+ sold-out venture events in 18 cities over the past 7 years. At our next Silicon Valley event, the panel of investors will focus on Early-Stage Venture Investing - how to meet investors, pitch them, and what it really takes to get them to write you a check - Especially in this economy! We will be discussing trends in Early-Stage Investing, hot sectors, sectors that these VCs look at, things that are most important to them when they are considering an Investment, the best and worst things an entrepreneur can do to get their attention, additional advice for entrepreneurs, and, of course, the best ways to reach these and other Investors. There will be plenty of time for networking with the Investor panelists, both before the panel & afterwards at the cocktail party.

As an additional benefit, entrepreneur 1/4 page summaries will be given to the investor speakers and attendees. All of the Investors will get your company description and contact info!

Register today, as this event will sell-out and is limited to only 75 tickets! Additionally, there will be an optional Pitching Workshop Lunch from 10:45am-1pm. The cost to participate will be $350. This Lunch Workshop includes the $75 ticket to the event, and a 1/4 page listing in the Venture Guide Magazine (normally $125). During this workshop we will completely deconstruct your elevator pitch, and work with you on formulating a clean and concise elevator pitch giving the important information that investors NEED to hear to make an educated decision on your company! Then you get to give your new Elevator Pitch in person to the Panel of Investors during the event! There are Only 14 spaces left in the workshop.
