Are you looking for ways to fund your idea? Can’t seem to find that dream Angel Investor to take that idea to the next level? Not a problem!
Join us for an interactive discussion where a panel of successful entrepreneurs will talk about how they got their funding and how taking funds from the “crowd” is not always the way to go.
We also will have an expert attorney talk about President Obama’s “JOBS Act” and how small businesses can take advantage of it.
Panelists
Joshua Resnikoff-Founder/Inventor, Cuppow (self-funded)
Tang Kit-Owner, Egg Roll Cafe (funded through friends and family)
Richard Pasek-President/CEO, Amperic Inc.(various funding, including through Kickstarter)
Michelle L. Basil-Partner, Nutter, McClennen & Fish (expert on “JOBS Act”)
Moderator
Travis Drouin-Partner, Moody, Famiglietti & Andronico (consults on startup financing)
Participants can grab food and a minor league baseball game (Lowell Spinners) across the street after the discussion – tickets for the game and buffet food are available in advance for $25 each!
