Launch Your Company at Launch Silicon Valley 2009

[emma2007]

Hello everyone,

I wish to share some useful info about a business event - Launch: Silicon Valley 2009.

The event, co-presented by SVASE, Garage Technology Ventures and Microsoft, provides the next generation of emerging technology companies with the opportunity to pitch their products to, and network with, an audience of Silicon Valley's top VCs, Angels, corporate business development executives, prospective customers and partners, bloggers and media.

Launch: Silicon Valley 2009 is designed to uncover and showcase products and services from the most exciting of the newest startups in information technology, mobility, security, digital media, next generation internet, life sciences and clean energy.

As in previous years, Launch: Silicon Valley 2009 will feature new companies that are ready for launch, but are not yet well known. These are companies that have a product or service available (as of June 9, 2009), but have not been out in the marketplace for more than a few months.

Companies that are interested in presenting their products at Launch: Silicon Valley 2009 should send an Executive Summary of no more than 2 pages to Launchsv@svase.org by latest May 8, 2009

Up to 30 of the most interesting companies will be invited to leverage Launch: Silicon Valley 2009 as the springboard to launch their product or service, and to network with the audience of Silicon Valley's top movers and shakers at the Pre-L:SV Event Party on the evening of June 8, as well as at the event itself on June 9.

In its 4th year, Launch: Silicon Valley is now firmly established as the premier product launch platform for cash strapped startups.
