Financing Your Invention

Securing financing can be one of the most daunting challenges to someone starting out on a new business venture. Inventors and new entrepreneurs face a unique set of obstacles that they must navigate through including answering the first question, "do I create a business around my invention or do I leverage my ideas through someone else?" This educational workshop seeks to help inventors understand the realities of financing their ideas, and provide a "how-to" for those looking to attract new investors, from friends and family to venture capitalists. Greg McGraw, a partner at TechCFO with over 25 years of top level financial and operational leadership, will discuss financing for all levels of inventors. Greg was named one of Catalyst Magazine's 2004 & 2005 50 Top Entrepreneurs in Atlanta.
