„In 2012, VentureConnect started a series of activities targeting the entrepreneurial environment and aiming to support it’s development and to offer Romanian projects the needed resources of networking and mentoring. We want to help the young start-ups to become scalable businesses, with profits that could actively attract investors from Romania or abroad, interest that would have the potential to bring a seed or venture investment. Until reaching this step, we believe an active mentoring period is needed and thus, together with the VentureConnect Board members, we are involved in a direct and structured manner in the process” says Marius Ghenea.

The third meeting will bring up for discussion subjects of interest for start-ups, such as business structure, strategies, e Commerce, Internet, brand development and positioning on the market, mobilizing resources as well as building relationships with potential investors.
