FundingPost hosts breakfast for local Early-Stage Investors and start-up
companies
NEW YORK, July 17 /PRNewswire/ -- On August 8th, 2007, FundingPost
(http://www.FundingPost.com) is hosting a panel discussion with leading
Early- stage Investors at its "Summer Early-Stage Investors Breakfast in
New York" event, sponsored by Morrison and Foerster. FundingPost has
created a unique niche because while most Investor events deal with Venture
Capitalists and later-stage investors, this event allows early-stage
companies a chance to meet local Early-stage Venture Capitalists. For more

registration information are available online:

FundingPost, having hosting a highly successful series of events for
the last six years, is continuing this proven formula again this year. The
panelists for this event include:
-- Gabriel Baldinucci, VP Corporate Development, Virgin USA
-- Jed Katz, Managing Director, DFJ Gotham
-- Divya Gugnani, Vice President, Pequot Ventures
-- Ryan Zeigler, Investment Manager, Edison Venture Fund
-- Skip Besthoff, Principal, Rho Ventures
Following the breakfast presentation, two companies will have the
opportunity to "pitch" to the entire panel of investors. "It's a fantastic
opportunity for an early-stage company to spend 20 minutes pitching a panel
of Investors," said Joe Rubin, Director, FundingPost. "Early-stage VCs are
always on the lookout for great ideas, and FundingPost is proud to provide
a forum for these investors to locate promising new ventures. Several of
the companies who pitched at our previous events have raised capital. We
hear of more success stories all the time ..."
