Thanks to the efforts of Chris Defilippo, we're hosting the second Fuqua Planapalooza (the first was held in the fall as the Business Plan Review project).

"If you haven’t signed up yet, don’t miss this opportunity to get involved with local start-ups and entrepreneurs. 

 
The 
Fuqua Planapalooza business plan review series gives you an opportunity to review business plans of North Carolina start-ups.  In conjunction with the CEI, EVCC, and NC IDEAyou choose what business you're interested in including: 
- Biotechnology & Medical Devices 
- Greentech/Clean Tech 
- IT Software & Wireless IT System
 
- ... and a range of other industries and applications. 
 
The Fuqua Plananpalooza will take place on Wednesday, February 11 from 9 am -1 pm including an informal networking lunch with local entrepreneurs and some of the team at NC IDEA.  Additionally, we will host a VC Crash Course with Jeff Boardman of 
learnvc.com, next Tuesday (February 3) from 6:30-7:30 pm. 
 
Teams of students will be assigned a few business plans in their chosen industry area and asked to make recommendations on their viability.  This feedback will be the basis for anyone interested in working with the start-ups on later application rounds or possibly in a longer-term relationship with the entrepreneur.   
 
Please sign up by Sunday, Feb 1.

  1. Brilliant site you have here however I was contemplating whether you was aware of any client conversation gatherings that cover similar subjects discussed here? I'd truly prefer to be a piece of online network where I can get reactions from other learned individuals that share a similar premium. On the off chance that you have any recommendations, if you don't mind let me know. Like it! Nadi Dosha
