HPNG ENTREPRENEURS Networking Event Invitation - Oct. 2nd in NY



Dear Friends and Colleagues:

You’re invited to the HPNG Entrepreneurs Networking Event on October 2nd in New York.


We all know gaining access to the right people and resources is key for any entrepreneurs’ success, but how do you finance your company’s expansion if you’ve exhausted traditional avenues for funding? A possible solution could be angel investors.


Angel investors is a term mostly associated with technology ventures, and that may be why non-tech companies have not utilized this resource, Latino entrepreneurs in particular.


At this upcoming HPNG Entrepreneurs Networking Event, we learn from a leading member of the Harvard Business School Latino Alumni Association/HBS Alumni Angels Association how to manage the process of pitching angel investors and how angel investors can be key your business growth. Like every process, there’s an art to every pitch and proposal, join us and learn how to best align yourself with the know-how to move forward with growing your business.
