Funding Alternatives Symposium

October 14, 6:00 PM to 8:30 PM

Keiretsu Forum, Intel Capital, and the Clean Tech Open would like to extend an invitation to you to join us for a symposium on "Funding Alternatives for Clean Tech Startup Companies: Insights from Investors and Entrepreneurs". This will be an informative and educational session for entrepreneurs like you, discussing funding alternatives, including angel investing, Keiretsu Forum Angel Network, and Intel Capital. In addition, two companies that have received funding will present their personal experience in raising funds: Earth Class Mail (a Keiretsu Forum member funded company), and Adura Technologies, a CCTO alumnus and former Energy Efficiency category winner.

The purpose of the symposium on "Funding Alternatives" is to reach out from Keiretsu Forum, Intel Capital, and CCTO to entrepreneurs in Silicon Valley to enhance the communication between us so you can better understand funding alternatives and the options available to you.

By attending this symposium you will get a better understanding of Angel Investment Groups and the advantages that Keiretsu Forum members and Intel Capital bring to their funded companies. In addition, we hope to learn from you the issues and assistance you would like to see the Angel and Corporate Investment community address in helping you go to market and being successful. There is a small fee to cover event costs and dinner. This is a special opportunity to interact with organizations that are typically difficult and expensive to touch base with.

2200 Mission College Boulevard, Santa Clara
