FUSION 2009 PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS: Nov 12-13 Vancouver BC

Keynote: Top Investor/ Digital Entrepreneur will give insight into current investment climate as well provide insight into raising international financing in an uncertain economy.

Targeted Presenter Scheduling: Early and growth stage companies are categorized according to sectors for the convenience of investors specifically interested in particular sectors so time is optimized. Sectors include: GAMES, MOBILE, SOCIAL MEDIA, WEB 2.0 PLATFORMS & APS.

Feedback on the fly: Selected panels of “by invitation only” investors will briefly critique the presenters of the day and offer their impressions and insights to building the ultimate pitch and ultimately select the top ten companies that will go into one-on one meetings with investors the following day.

Investor Round Table Sessions and One-on-One Investor Meetings: International VCs and Angels have the opportunity to meet with Canadian VCs to discuss current issues in the industry, investment climate and potential partnerships. Private one-on-one meetings will be set up with top 10 entrepreneurs on Nov13.

Pitch Platform: The presenting companies undergo some serious vetting from our advisory board. Top 20 presenters will be allotted 10 minutes each to pitch their product/IP on Nov 12, followed by a critique of five minutes each, before a public audience.
