Raising Capital and Launching Startups in Uncertain Times
If this is your first visit you may wish to follow me on twitter, subscribe to my RSS feed or subscribe via email.
This is part of my Series on Venture Capital.
A few weeks ago I authored a post describing five common myths about raising capital. In this webinar organized by the
National Council for Entrepreneurial Tech Transfer, I am joined by colleagues of
mine from the venture, angel and legal community to specifically address the challenges of raising capital and launching new companies in a difficult economic environment. The webinar's agenda also includes the
following specific sub-topics:
- How recent market developments are affecting tech
transfer offices and startups.
- Emerging trends in the angel investment market.
- Emerging trends in the venture investment market.
- Changes in legal terms of startup transactions.
- Positioning startups for funding and operational
success.
In my remarks I specifically address how the economic
downturn has affected university start-ups/spin-offs and what steps university
venture labs can take in light of such conditions. I welcome your insights as always.
