Entrepreneurs meet Angel Investors in New York

On October 20th, FundingPost (www.FundingPost.com) is hosting a panel discussion with leading Angel Investors at its “Angel Investors in New York” event, sponsored by Morrison and Foerster. FundingPost has created a unique niche because while most Investor events deal with Venture Capitalists and later-stage investors, this event allows early-stage companies a chance to meet local early-stage Private Investors known as “Angel” Investors and Early-stage Venture Capitalists. For more information about this event, the FundingPost Event Calendar and registration information are available online: http://www.FundingPost.com/events.asp

After hosting a highly successful series of Angel Investing events in 2004, FundingPost is continuing this proven formula again this year.

Following the breakfast presentation, two companies will have the opportunity to “pitch” to the entire panel of investors. “It’s a fantastic opportunity for an early-stage company to spend 20 minutes pitching a room full of Angels and Seed Investors,” said Joe Rubin, Director, FundingPost. “Angel investors and early-stage VCs are always on the lookout for great ideas, and FundingPost is proud to provide a forum for seed investors to locate promising new ventures.”
