Chris Gill, SVASE CEO, Dylan Steeg, Intel Capital Senior Investment Manager, and I completed our careful and exhaustive review of prospective presenters' slides. We had more than 200 unique inquiries for the March 12th event. I narrowed the list down to a final 22 presentations and that is where we focused most of our effort.
Congratulations to the following First Impressions March 12th presenters:
- BrightQube, Lee Corkran
- DebugLive, Chuck Orr
- Ephox, Andrew Roberts
- Focus Biology, Matthew Frome
- KeyMedia, Kelly Brant
As usual, we had a number of quality presentations and business ideas, but only 5 slots. For those who did not make the final list this time, I present 3 SVASE-related options:
- E-mail me, Chad Salinas, if you would like me to put you into the priority queue for the next event.
- SVASE offers a number of workshops detailing how to prepare presentations. In addition to expert advice, you will also meet other members of the SVASE team and familiarize yourself with some of the heuristics of raising money.
- Attend the First Impressions event as an observer to get a feel for the quality of presentations and business ideas.
Thanks to everyone who participated.
Chad Salinas
