    Tuesday November 4, 2003
  • Next Program: SBIR Funding Sources for Technology Projects
    Tab Wilkins, Washington Technology Center

    "If your company is developing products or processes using technology, then your time to market, and hence your financing needs may be greater than for many other types of firms. You may need to locate and work with outside sources of funding. This program is aimed at helping you understand what some of your options are, and how you might go about pursuing them.

    Venture Capitalist's and Angel Investors are typically interested in rates of return that allow them to obtain significant increases in their investments within a 5 year timeframe. Government related funding is more interested in job and business development as opposed to their own direct return. However in both situations, the case has to be made clear to the potential funder as to how their return will be achieved.

    The goal of the session is to help people who are working with technology-related products, either those who are developing technology products, or who are using technology as an enabler (i.e. simulated surgery for example) refine their approach to business development. The participants will have an opportunity to evaluate their funding options among a variety of sources depending upon their business goals and plan.

    We limit seating to 30, so you can have a personal conversation with a very successful investor and executive peer network.
    Fee: $45 in advance until Monday, 10.31.03 - $60 thereafter
