Description - Exploding from the runways of the fashion world, Bian Variani has brought the glamour and glitz of the catwalk to the business world. As the founder and CEO of the investment networking website www.FindThatMoney.com, Variani has translated his success in "haute couture" into helping connect investors with entrepreneurs. Venture capitalists and others who want to put money into startups, franchises and other large or small businesses can use this site to find business people who need funding and those who are looking for funding online can find angel investors or others to help start or expand a successful business The Art of Combining Finance with High Fashion Perfected at Find That Money High fashion is not a business; this is an art form that wraps its beauty around the human form. Such art was never intended to be an industry. It was meant to be free from the pressures and compromises that steal its joy and reduce the work of many in fashion designers to simply money-making endeavors. Such a picture can be painted of the renaissance at Gucci. Tom Ford and Domenico de Sole were the design genius and financial guru who helped to take Gucci from a nearly bankrupt family business and turn it into a global fashion phenomenon. Ford and De Sole, are known by many industry observers as "the undisputed architects of most of modern fashion." They embarked Gucci on a major expansion plan during the 1990s and transformed Gucci into a multi-billion dollar fashion giant By thrusting Gucci back into the international spotlight starting with a show in 1995 which was simmering in sex and leaving a generation of women demanding Gucci designs, Ford assumed control of the scissors at Yves Saint Laurent. His work there produced a more mature and sophisticated, yet still sexy style that transformed the fortunes of the haute couture house, leading to the resignation of the company's founder, Yves Saint Laurent himself. All of this happened under the skillful financial guidance of De Sole, who worked his own brand of creative magic to bring Gucci back to financial stability. Fitting finance and fashion Gucci is not the only example of the union that needs to exist between the glamour and glitz of fashion and the black-and-white reality of finance. Such a balance can be seen in the life and career of Vancouver entrepreneur and fashion designer Bian Variani. Known for incredible designs and attention-grabbing stage performances, Variani was already a valued commodity in the fashion world before he ever stepped into the financial arena. While renowned for fitting fine fabrics together to make beautiful and sexy clothing, Variani's career path took an unexpected turn that has forever fit fashion and finance together. While seeking investors to help him launch one of his international clothing lines, this Vancouver entrepreneur and visionary realized that a good location for locating funding simply did not exist. This void not only hindered the release of his acclaimed fashion line but it also took time away from his design endeavors. Variani decided that it was time to design something fresh and exciting in the financial sector. This vision led to the birth of Find That Money (www.FindThatMoney.com), Variani's revolutionary investment networking website. Designing a way to find funding Find That Money realizes Variani's dream of creating business opportunities for not only the fashionistas, but for entrepreneurs throughout the business world. Venture capitalists and others who want to put money into startups, franchises and other large or small businesses can use this site to find entrepreneurs who need funding while those who are looking for funding online can find angel investors or others to help start or expand a successful business. Fashion and finance seem like an odd couple. Thanks to the Bian Variani and Find That Money, the two are a perfect fit.
