Facilitating Technology Commercialization & Innovation from DOE Federal Laboratories
TECHNOLOGY VENTURES CORPORATION’S DEAL STREAM SUMMIT serves as a vehicle to facilitate private invest-ment partnerships among developers of emerging technologies in the laboratory, private sector and investment community. Through the years, this conference—previously known as the Equity Capital Symposium—has provided opportunities for hundreds of companies to receive funding and has fueled the commercialization of laboratory R&D and IP. Of the companies that presented at this forum, some 30 percent have received funding, which is a remarkable record.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND: Venture capitalists, corporate investors, startup executives, R&D scientists and researchers, DOE laboratory officials, tech transfer executives from federal laboratories, licensing officers, private equity investors, corporate develop-ment and new business development executives, corporate counsel. The Summit provides a stimulating platform for the presentation of intriguing and important new technologies as well as keynote addresses and pertinent panel discussions.
