On February 11, 2010, 28+ of the leading Venture Capital and Angel Investor Groups in the New York area will present at FundingPost’s NYC Venture Capital Showcase sponsored by Credit Suisse. While most venture events allow start-ups only to listen to a panel discussion or to pitch to investors, this event is a "Reverse Venture Fair." This format allows Entrepreneurs to meet the Venture Capitalists and Angel Investors in a cocktail party setting where the investors are the ones providing information about their companies. As an additional benefit, the investors will receive summaries of every company in attendance.
During the evening cocktail party, VC Funds and Angel Groups will be exhibiting their firms. Each Fund will have their own table set up for the sole purpose of meeting great new companies seeking capital. Exhibiting firms include:
• ETF Venture Funds
• Connecticut Innovations
• Originate Ventures
• Keiretsu Forum
• 21Ventures
• Yun Capital
• FirstMark Capital
• Liquidity Works
• Genacast Ventures
• ff Asset Management
• OmniVC
• Argentum Group
• Millennium Technology Ventures
• Jersey Angels
• Tri-State Private Investors Network

"We are thrilled to see such an amazing response again from the VC and Angel Community," said Joe Rubin, Director, "This VC Showcase will be even bigger than last year’s event. The VCs and Angels are becoming more and more active with the new year and they are looking for quality dealflow."
