Entrepreneurs,
We’ve been meaning to throw a plug The Capital Network‘s way because they do a ton of great work helping entrepreneurs figure out the thorny world of funding their companies.
So here it is: The Capital Network is awesome and you should start going to their events.
A few upcoming:
January 11th - A Breakfast Roundtable: Pitching the Plan - Learn how to identify the right investors for YOUR company and how to get them to believe in you and your vision.
January 19th - Expert Lunch: Understanding Debt Term Sheets - Yeah, this is where I leave my depth and I bet lots of you do too! TCN says you’ll learn “how to use sophisticated debt instruments to leverage company equity and reduce dilution.” Sounds great to me!
February 2nd - Expert Lunch: Utilizing Your IP to Access Funding - Can you license out your Intellectual Property Portfolio to raise cash for your company? Find the answer at this session.
February 9th - Evening Roundtable: Negotiation and Valuation - Learn what methodologies and tactics you should consider using to evaluate investment or offers.
March 16th - Expert Lunch: Transitioning from Seed to Venture Capital - Just what it sounds like and incredibly useful to all you ambitious startup people out there.
Now, we know most of these cost some money to attend, although it’s not exorbitant. You should be aware that TCN is a partner in the Stay in MA campaign and you may be eligible to have some of the attendance cost covered. Take a look.
Also, be on the lookout in the next couple months for a Boston Young Entrepreneurs + TCN collaboration. We’re talking folks, we’re talking. Only good will come of this.
