“Fundraising Without V.C.’s – Austin as the Alternative Capital Capitol”

Some of our best friends are VCs and bankers…they’re even on our advisory board.  But they are not a good option for every entrepreneur and idea. 

This session is for entrepreneurs interested in alternative ways to raise capital.  Our expert panel will share experiences and tips for raising money through bootstrapping, angel investors, grants, and non-traditional debt.

Speakers include Bijoy Goswami of Bootstrap Austin, Jamie Rhodes of the Central Texas Angel Network, Commercialization Funding Coach Fred Patterson, and Doug Mangum of Silicon Valley Bank.  Bob Smith of Bridgepoint Consulting and Matt Cohen of OneSpot will moderate.

Online registration is closed.  Walk-up registration is available at the door for $20.
