Yes, you heard it right - speed dating between entrepreneurs and potential investors.  This event is being billed as New England's leading speed venturing event for entrepreneurs seeking growth capital.   Looks like entrepreneurs will meet with at least six potential investors ranging from Angels to VC's and the investors will certainly be meeting more than 6 entrepreneurs given the networking session. Speed Venture Summit  Tuesday, October 28, 2008 Radisson Hotel, 700 Elm Street, Manchester, NH One thing I am really excited about with this event is something that we have done annually in our Borealis Peak Pitch events - the pitch-off!  Investors vote based on every meeting they have and then the top pitches go up against each other live to determine the best pitch of the day!  Got to love a little competition!  As one of the sponsors I had the chance to talk about this event and related early stage tech investing approaches on Arnie Arnsen's "Political Chowder" talk show - go 39 minutes into the video for this conversation, but be sure to get in the game by October 1st if you want to pitch at the event! Entrepreneurs/Presenters: To pitch your business or idea to investors - here for more info  AND  here for the application.

Borealis Ventures offers some great advice here--this is the only place in New England where growing companies can meet face-to-face with suitable investors and tell their story.
