What’s Coming in 2013?, WTIA Executive Community Event

When: Thursday, January 10, 2013, 6:00 PM –  8:00 PM

What: In 2012, the digital technology industry experienced tremendous growth in many sectors including tablet computers, powerful smartphones, carrier-based 4G networks, and smarter cloud offerings for both consumers and enterprises. For investors seeking to back the next market leader in these and other sectors, the risk vs. reward considerations for investing in and supporting these emerging businesses has seldom been greater. The decision to invest is driven by investors’ assessment of a company’s overall market potential as well as their perceived ability to overcome the myriad technical, market, and business challenges they will inevitably face.

Join the WTIA’s Executive Community Groups as we welcome Enrique Godreau III, Managing Director at GSharp Ventures and a panel of investor’s with different structural approaches and perspectives on investing in 2013. You will hear from a traditional VC, an Angel investor, a Corporate M&A Pro, an Incubator and a Micro-VC on what digital technologies they will be looking for next year. You won’t want to miss this unique perspective as the panel makes predictions on the most compelling digital technology growth opportunities in 2013 and how they intend to invest in those trends.
