--> ESITE STARTUP SEMINAR <--
Raising the first round of funding for your venture
Steve Ketchpel, CTO & Founder
Vividence Corporation
Where: DH 1212 When: Friday, Sept 22. 4:30pm-5:30pm
Pizza & Drinks will be served!
You've got the killer startup idea, you've assembled the team (well
almost!), now all you need is the money to get you going! The hunt for
funding is on--and you've got questions:
* The Elevator pitch!
* What are your funding options?
* How do you generate VC interest in your idea and company?
* What terms are important in the negotiation?
* How does the valuation get decided?
BRING YOUR RESUME FOR A CHANCE TO WIN AN MP-3 PLAYER!
Steve Ketchpel, the CTO & Founder of Vividence Corporation, faced the
same questions in September 1998. In the two years since, he has helped
Vividence raise $18M from top tier venture capital firms Kleiner Perkins
Caufield and Byers and Sequoia Capital.
