Techpreneurship: Technology Venture Showcase is June 16th
Jeff Amerine
Techpreneurship, with Jeff Amerine
(Jeff Amerine is an IA advisor, entrepreneurship educator, and officer with the University of Arkansas Technology Licensing Office. Each Thursday, his Techpreneurship blog will appear in INOV8. Drop him a line in comments.)
Next Wednesday, June 16, something amazing and unprecedented will take place in Harrison, Arkansas, from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the North Arkansas Community College Durand Conference Center…
Innovate Arkansas has teamed with the Harrison Chamber of Commerce and NorthArk to host the monthly Innovate Arkansas Technology Venture Showcase lunch in Harrison for the first time ever. The showcase usually rotates between Little Rock and Fayetteville.
We hope to get some great dialog going between three fantastic early-stage companies and business leaders and investors from north central Arkansas. We hope to see you there! Hey, go ahead and make the trip if you live in NWA or Little Rock. It will be worth your time.
Here are the Innovate Arkansas client companies that will present during the outstanding lunch that will be catered by Neighbor’s Mill (if you hadn’t heard of them do a search in Southern Living – their food is excellent!) next week:
Phigenics – a world class provider of corporate water quality, water usage, and water safety solutions. Phigenics has some impressive intellectual property and an equally impressive client list.
Human Factors Analytics – HFA delivers a decision support web portal to small and medium size businesses that allows their clients to dramatically reduce health-benefits spending while improving overall employee wellness.
Rebounces – A Harrison-based company that has a patented technology to repressurize, reuse, and recycle tennis balls that would otherwise continue to fill up landfills. The number one tennis club in the country uses the Rebounces system.
All of these companies are raising capital and looking for strategic partners and relationships. Don’t miss this event if you are a potential angel investor or strategic partner. Contact Vicki Malpass at vmalpass@winrock.org to RSVP.
Hope to see you there!
This sounds like a great opportunity for some promising companies. I look forward to hearing how this goes. Good luck to all involved.
