Silicon Valley Angel & Venture Conference and SoCal Angel & Venture Conference
FundingPost has hosted 150+ sold-out venture events in 17 cities over the past 7 years. At these next two events, the panel of investors will focus on early-stage venture investing: how to meet investors, pitch them, and what it really takes to get them to write you a check! We will be discussing trends in early-stage investing, hot sectors, sectors that these angels and VCs look at, things that are most important to them when they are considering an investment, the best and worst things an entrepreneur can do to get their attention, additional advice for entrepreneurs, and, of course, the best ways to reach these and other investors. There will be plenty of time for networking with the investor panelists, both before the panel and after the panel at the cocktail party!

I've attended PubCon in the past, and I love it.
I was thinking of maybe attending Internet Summit also... anyone else here been there? I'm not much of a traveler, and 2 conferences per year seems a bit much for me... but I'm sure plenty of you are conference-aholics ;o
Commendable! As 2009 e-mail award holder I strongly encourage and look forward attending one before the year ends.
Thanks
