Entrepreneurs meet Angel Investors in New York

New York, NY (May 22, 2007) – On May 23rd, FundingPost (www.FundingPost.com) is hosting a panel discussion with leading Angel Investors at its “Early-Stage Investors Breakfast 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 for the last four years, FundingPost is continuing this proven formula again this year. The panelists for the event include:

• Michael Biggee, Vice President, Trident Capital
• Warren Haber, Managing Partner, Crossbar Capital
• Maneesh Sagar, Director, Investments, Connecticut Innovations
• Jung Yun, Senior Vice President, Global Media Fund
• Christian Mayaud,Founder, The Verticom Group
• Chris Starr, Vice President, Science Center & MAG Fund


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.”
