Entrepreneurs Meet Early-Stage Investors in Silicon Valley

FundingPost introduces local venture capitalists to early-stage companies.

Silicon Valley, CA May 28, 2007 -- On May 29, FundingPost (www.FundingPost.com) is hosting a panel discussion with leading Angel Investors at its "Silicon Valley Early-Stage Venture Investing" event, hosted by the City of Menlo Park. 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 Seed-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 over five years, FundingPost is continuing this proven formula again this year. The panelists for the event include:

Richard Irving, Managing Partner, Pond Venture Partners
Andrew Braccia, Accel Partners
Tom McKinley, Managing Partner & Co-Founder, Partech International
Robert McNeil, Ph.D., Managing Director, Sanderling Ventures
John Hall, General Partner & Co-Founder, Horizon Ventures
Edward Esber, Jr., Member, The Halo Fund
Ben Dubin, Asset Management Company
Igor Sill, Managing Director, Hambrecht Geneva Ventures
Ravi Belani, Associate, Draper Fisher Jurvetson

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 early-stage Investors," said Joe Rubin, Director, FundingPost. "Seed-stage VCs are always on the lookout for great ideas, and FundingPost is proud to provide a forum for them to locate promising new ventures."
