Dear Jeffrey:
Will you be able to join other VentureWire subscribers in the Bay Area for this month's Breakfast Briefing? We'll be gathering at the San Mateo Marriott on Wednesday, September 19, to hear Mark Klopp's thoughts on this month's topic: When Corporate and Venture Worlds Collide - Aligning Investment Strategies to Drive Innovation and Generate Returns While times are certainly tough across the board, new opportunities for creating profitable, sustainable investment strategies continue to emerge. Innovative companies such as Eastman Chemical have led the charge in using venturing as a way to spur corporate transformation and create long-term value. Moreover, by understanding the often complementary strategies that drive their respective investment decisions, corporate and private VCs stand to gain a unique perspective with which to explore mutually profitable relationships. =B7 What is the current state of corporate venturing? =B7 What are some examples of corporations and VCs working together to build companies? =B7 How can you balance strategic vs. financial value? =B7 How can you prove value despite sagging returns? =B7 To what extent does the corporate VC serve as an "inside/outside pipe" for driving innovation? =B7 How can corporate VCs and private VCs leverage distinct skill sets in a spirit of cooperation to drive innovation and change? Join us for a provocative discussion of these and other important questions led by Mark Klopp, managing director of Eastman Ventures, Eastman Chemical Co. Register by Thursday, September 13th and you'll pay only $99 and ensure your name in the attendance roster.
