Venture Alpha East – April 4, 2013
Public Group active 1 month, 1 week agoAfter two successful years on the West Coast, the VC industry’s top LP/VC networking event heads east.
The last two Octobers in San Francisco, the editors of VCJ, Reuters and peHUB.com brought together over 65 investors and gathered more than 300 attendees overall to hear some of the best content to be found in venture anywhere. The event also arranged over 100 LP/VC private meetings through our efficient ExecConnect meetings program. Following this success, the editors of VCJ decided it was time to establish an east coast version of the event. Details are here: http://www.vcjconferences.com/events/east_2013/
