Recently, I helped organize a group called The Right Money at the Right Time at the Right Terms. SITAKS (Regional Software and Information Technology Trade Association) hosted an engaging panel discussion on raising business capital. The
panel shared how growing businesses secure the right money at the right time at the right terms and discussed what the latest trends are in our local business ecosystem.
The panel discussion featured experts in capital-raising and shared their tips on:
What terms & conditions investors & angel groups look for.
Part 1

Part 2

DOs and DON’Ts on what should be included in both a pitch and a presentation.
Part 1

Part 2

One successful entrepreneur-turned-investor’s personal experience on what works and what does not in connecting with investors.
Panelists included: Toby Rush, founder and president of Rush Tracking Systems; Michele Weigand, managing partner of Focused Perspective; and Dr. Joel Wiggins, president and CEO of the Enterprise Center of Johnson County and executive manager of Mid-America Angels Investments. Entrepreneur Davyeon Ross of Digital Sports Ventures moderated the discussion.
