  • CUTEC - CUE workshop 11th February: The Investors' Forum

    CUTEC and Cambridge University Entrepreneurs (CUE) collaborate for the first time in the history of both clubs to organize a grand workshop on 11th February, 2009 to provide an insight into how investment criteria change in a time of global economic crisis.

    Venue: Law Faculty, LG18
    Date: 11th February 2009

    Agenda:
    5.45pm Registration
    6:30pm Panel discussion followed by Q&A's
    8.00pm Networking session, Food & Drinks

    Panelists:
    * Alex Van Someren (nCipher) - moderator
    * Kerry Baldwin (IQ Capital)
    * Simon Cook (DFJ Espirit)
    * Laurence John (Amadeus)
    * Reshma Sohoni (SeedCamp)
    * Sitar Teli (Doughty Hanson Tech Ventures)

    The current economic climate poses significant challenges for budding entrepreneurs, but for truly exceptional ideas there is always money. A stellar panel of early-stage investors, who have funds available currently, will explain why they think it is still a good time to invest, as well as how the crisis affects their strategy through addressing such questions as:

    -Where do investors place their money in times of global monetary slowdown?
    -Why entrepreneurship can prosper in such times? Is there a common pattern in past recession success stories?
    -How can a start-up accommodate strategically an economic crisis?
    -How can you recession-proof your business plan?
