The 18th Annual Entrepreneur & Investor Luncheon is a great opportunity for investors to network with other investors and with Minnesota’s top entrepreneurs. Bringing the investment and entrepreneurial community together has been the goal since the National Venture Capital Association, Minnesota Venture Capital Association and The Collaborative first launched this event in 1996.
Keynote Address by Mark Heesen
President, National Venture Capital Association
As his tenure with the NVCA nears a close (he announced his retirement in March 2013), Mark will share his insights on the current state of venture investing and what the future may hold, as well as the issues and opportunities currently facing Minnesota and the U.S. economy—particularly in regards to innovation and venture capital. As NVCA co-founded the Annual Luncheon, it is especially fitting to have Mark as our speaker this year. |
