"Although I provided comments and suggestions via a survey form that INNOVA provided to VC Expo 2006 attendees, it seemed that it would be hard to improve something so very well thought out. I am grateful to have attended and it also sparked my interest in INNOVA FastTrac® programs and other educational and helpful learning possibilities that INNOVA offers."
Joe Seriani, CyberFranchise Systems

"My primary interest as a participant of VC Expo 2006 was to gain knowledge about venture capital and seed funding opportunities, commercialization services and support, and to network with the INNOVA team and other professional state economic development attendees and service providers. In addition to receiving insights from experienced entrepreneurs and venture capital speakers, the networking sessions allowed me to discuss my business and receive recommendations specific to Presynct's initiatives."
Evelyn Graham, Presynct Technologies, Inc.

"I attended the VC Expo 2006 to learn more about venture capital and angel funding opportunities within West Virginia. While I am not currently seeking funding for my business - which is still in the conceptual stage - by attending the VC Expo I was able to utilize the opportunity to network effectively and had several venture capital and angel investors express a strong interest in my business concept proposal."
George Phillips, West Virginia Biofuels, LLC

"I thought the VC Expo 2005 was really well done. The presentations were excellent and the agenda seemed to flow well. Meeting and networking with those present was also beneficial. So hats off to INNOVA with organizing this event."
David Lieving, West Virginia Development Office

"I attended VC Expo 2006 to gain a better perspective of the opportunities and possibilities for faculty at WVU who are engaged in research that could lead to innovations with possibilities for tech transfer, new start-ups, etc. The meeting was informative for me, and I came away with a better perspective of the opportunities that might be available with INNOVA."
