Attracting adequate venture capital funds and high-quality intellectual and business partners is a key to success. VIP will host the Virginia Ventures Forum and will bring active venture and corporate capital funds to our consortium, thus enhancing exposure of our i6-funded research to private sector investors and enhancing the deal flow to new ventures. This supports innovation, job creation, and increased GDP based on new technology that is difficult to off-shore. We have succeeded in this goal for the past four years at the UVa Venture Summit. It has been the largest university-based venture gathering in the world for four years, demonstrating the feasibility of implementing this quality of event and capital attraction for the i6 VIP consortium.
This year’s event will be held in northern Virginia. This will be a full day event showcasing the funded projects and keynote talks on the windows of the future.
