I have been enjoying and appreciating the funding summit that you have put together. I am a young entrepreneur and a lot of topics that you have discussed are definitely not being taught. Its sad, because people make profit from the non or miss educated. This summit has provided a forceful platform for those that are in the entrepreneurial industry and should take these topics in great consideration.

I think you have done a tremendous job at organizing the funding summit – from putting together the speakers & topics to really addressing entrepreneurial concerns from a start up’s perspective. The most insightful takeaways/topics for me included: debt financing before equity, test proof of concept, know your exit strategy, the funding brackets, factoring vs. purchase order financing, how microloans are approved, the 5 different types of crowdfunding, how to find angel investors, how to get the most out of hiring a video production team and the timeline for Shark Tank.

Thank you for your generosity in seeking to empower entrepreneurs all over the world as we seek to start businesses but often are stifled by the challenge of where and how to get funding. I have benefited immeasurably from your forum and look to continue learning from you.
