The Entrepreneurs Gathering
Funding Realities
Entrepreneurs and Investors Only
October 11, 2005 6-8 pm
[Held the second Tuesday of each month]
Host: The Enterprise Network

Please join us for a very special evening completely dedicated to Investors and Entrepreneurs. The VC Task Force Entrepreneurs’ Gathering is a great opportunity for entrepreneurs to network with investors and other CXOs, present their company and idea, and hear first-hand what it takes to raise early-stage capital in 2005. Each of our first two events drew over 50 entrepreneurs and more than a dozen investors.

If you are an entrepreneur in a Bay Area startup and currently seeking capital, come prepared with your best 20-second elevator pitch a minimum of six copies of your Executive Summary.

If you are an investor come and listen to entrepreneurs’ pitches. You never know where you’ll find your next deal. Find out how the current panel of investors rate the entrepreneurs’ pitches. Which VCs pass and for what reasons and which entrepreneurs other VCs want to talk to ASAP. Please let us know if you would like to participate on one of our panels.

During the evening the microphone will be passed to a select number of entrepreneurs who will present to the entire room. . Our distinguished panel of 4-6 early stage investors will provide brief feedback. Please note that time limits will be strictly enforced!

Our Esteemed Panel:
Stewart Sonnenfeldt, Managing Director, Sand Hill Angels, LLC

Duncan Davidson, Managing Director, Vantage Point Venture Partners
Prashant Shah, Hummer Winblad Venture Partners
