Back by popular demand – speed networking. This is the event where you can make new contacts to build your business, win a promotion or find a job. You’ll meet people just like you who are interested in expanding their circle of contacts. The way it works: participants pair off for 10 minutes of conversation, then continue to switch partners every 10 minutes, allowing everyone to meet at least 5-6 new people in these mini-meetings. That’s in addition to the contacts you’ll make over refreshments before and after the structured speed networking program. In each partnering, you’ll have the opportunity to describe what you do, offer to provide helpful contacts, share information and resources and give feedback. Your partner will do the same for you.

During the current recession, angel investors have become even more important. As angels help build innovative companies, we help create jobs and value in our economy. And, there has never been a more important time for angel investors to get ideas from peers and build skills with top professional development programs.

ACA’s 2009 Summit is the largest gathering of angel investing groups in North America. The event is designed for members of angel groups – both leaders and member investors – as a true peer exchange, with valuable information and thought-provoking discussion on best practices in the field and a way to better know your colleagues for future co-investment. The 2008 event attracted 380 attendees from more than 100 angel groups.

Click here to register. A copy of the Summit agenda is at the bottom of this page. Any questions regarding registration or logistics should be directed to Your Conference Connection (YCC), which is assisting ACA with the event.

Contact YCC at 910-452-0006 or acaregistration@teamycc.com. ACA will offer a special session for angels from outside the United States to exchange ideas and models of angel groups in other countries. More information about the invitation-only workshop on April 15th is available here.
