For participating energy startups and companies, the Energy Tech Venture Forum is an opportunity to meet energy investors and corporations.
The forum kicks off on Wednesday with private investor and company meetings. Nearly 90 companies will be included in this personalized opportunity to interact one-on-one with investors. Prior to office hours, investors review participating companies and indicate interest in meeting with them, resulting in real results for startup companies. The 75 investors attend this event ready to identify and move forward with due diligence. Companies can expect to have between 4 and 10 meetings. Founders tell us that office hours are the most valuable part of the program.
