It wasn’t so long ago that female angel and venture capital investors were rarities in Wisconsin and elsewhere. Today, they’re making a mark in the early stage economy – but with lots of room for growth. Assessing that progress and what comes next will be discussed at the Dec. 2 virtual W·O·M·E·N reception produced by the Wisconsin Technology Council.
The conference will features National keynote speakers and targeted panel discussions featuring leading entrepreneurs, investors and others tied to the tech sector making an impact nationwide.
The 2024 Early Stage Symposium will be held Nov. 13-14 at the Monona Terrace in Madison.
This year’s conference theme is Piecing together success through investment.
Companies of all stages are invited to apply to pitch their stories to investors at the in-person Wisconsin Early Stage Symposium, set for Nov. 5-6 at Monona Terrace Community and Convention Center in Madison. The 2025 conference will feature four pitch opportunities: the two-minute “Open Mic” Quick Pitches, five-minute Tech Council Investor Networks presentations, the 90-second Elevator Pitch Olympics and “Investor Intros,” which pair pre-selected companies with angel and venture investors for brief one-on-one meetings.
