Seminar Overview:
Startup founders have steep learning curves that are even steeper when they require external capital. They often become frustrated, bewildered, intimidated, isolated and often overwhelmed by the challenges of launching and financing their business.

Magnetic Startups is a seminar that addresses their pain. It gives startup founders:

  • a step-by-step system of best practices and milestones for building a startup that will be seen as a worthy custodian of seasoned investors' capital
  • clear, concise, comprehensive and coordinated steps to a full treasury
  • the mindset and metrics for success from the get-go
  • confidence that they have what it takes to build a successful startup

To raise serious amounts of external capital, a startup must take 3 steps:

  1. It must be perceived as a home run in the making
  2. It must develop a compelling offering
  3. It must vigorously market this offering to logical sources of early-stage capital

Magnetic Startups describes a system of 20 best practices that lead startup founders through these 3 steps.

The seminar will offer examples for agritech companies, but is relevant to companies of all sectors.

About Roger:
Magnetic Startups will be delivered by Roger Killen. Roger has founded 7 startup businesses and held senior positions in 2 others. He has taken one company public and been an angel investor 7 times. He has led in raising over $8m in startup equity and leveraged this equity into $14m.

This seminar is being offered as part of the agritech stream for the 2012 BCIC-New Ventures Competition, funded by the Growing Forward Program. Thank you also to BCIC for supporting this seminar.
