The Angel Showcase
How Do VCs Select Angel-Backed Deals?
September 16, 2009 | 5:30-8:30 PM | 1000 Elwell Court | Palo Alto
Event Sponsor: The TIPS Group
Angels and angel networks historically provide more seed capital to entrepreneurs than the entire VC Community combined. Angel-backed deals should be the logical place for VCs to look for early stage deals. Yet, only a fraction of the deals that Angels start do VCs choose to take to the next level of funding and beyond. How do VCs choose which deals to back and which deals to leave behind? What types of companies do organized Angels finance? What makes Angel-backed companies most attractive to VCs? Join us and find out.
During the evening, four information technology, Angel-backed CEOs, selected by Keiretsu Forum, will present their companies to our distinguished panel of early stage venture capitalists. After each 10 minute CEO presentation, the panel will provide 5 minutes of Q&A, followed by five minutes of feedback.
Our lively panel discussion and Q&A will provide critical insight into what it takes for Angel-backed companies to receive follow-on funding from VCs.
Venture Capitalists, come listen to the best selected deals from the Keiretsu Forum portfolio, and meet angels and entrepreneurs. Find out how our panel of investors rate these Angel-backed pitches; which ones the VCs would choose for what reasons; and which companies other VCs want to talk to ASAP.
Angel Investors, find out what VCs look for in Angel-backed deals; meet and network with other angels and with VCs interested in Angel-backed deals. Learn how to make your deals more attractive to VCs.
Entrepreneurs/CEOs, learn what types of deals both angels and VCs are backing; meet and network with VCs and angel investors. Learn what key characteristics your angel deal should include to best position your company for follow-on VC funding.
