Inland Northwest entrepreneurs receive tips on attracting investors
at Spokane area seminar
WTC and local partner INTEC co-hosted an "Eye of the Investor" workshop
in Spokane on March 26 for inland northwest entrepreneurs wanting to
learn how to best position their companies to investors looking to
fund early-stage
ventures.
 This workshop, part of a statewide series organized by the WTC and presented
by the Alliance of Angels, drew a group of nearly 40 company founders
and representatives and provided personal insight from investors on a
variety of topics, including:
- Where to find angel investors
- How to attract early-stage investors to your company
- Factors considered by investors when making an investment decision
- Strategies for handling investor relations.
During the half-day course, seasoned investment professionals covered
key points critical to making an entrepreneurial venture attractive from
a funding perspective. Real world examples, best and worst case scenarios
and tips for making the “pitch” were covered in depth.
