Introducing FUNDING THE BEST IN GLOBAL INNOVATION — A 2-day conference bringing together a first-of-its-kind global ecosystem developed to close the gap between US investors and top investment opportunities overseas.

With the number of technology accelerators outside the U.S. reaching over 300, and nations increasing resources in technology and entrepreneurship, the level of global innovation at its peak. Who is mining the untapped (and far less expensive) investment opportunities overseas? And how does a game-changing, yet unknown, venture from abroad get on the radar of US investors to secure funding and expand globally?

It's a growing problem that has yet be addressed — until now…

DAY 1 — We'll hear from leaders of NY's venture community on exactly what it takes to raise funds, expand and integrate into the NYC startup ecosystem. Plus — international startups sharing detailed "success stories" of New York expansion.

DAY 2 — We'll showcase 10 top accelerator graduates and exceptional startups from around the world. Each company gets priceless one-on-one mentorship from seasoned investors and intimate access to top VCs, angels and family offices. In Demo Day style they'll pitch these high-potential ventures to our premier NYC venture community.
