The fifth Venture Connect edition scheduled for 31st May

Venture Connect announces the fifth edition of the event on 31st May, at Hotel Intercontinental. Together with the traditional networking and pitching event organized under the Venture Connect connect umbrella, the second part of the day will consist of a conference dedicated to business-angels interested in a possible investment in scalabile entrepreneurial projects from the IT, online and technology zone.

One of the most important entrepreneurial initiatives in Romania announces the fifth edition on 31st of May, in Bucharest, Hotel Intercontinental. Entrepreneurs who wish to pitch their business plan in front of 20-30 investors from Romania and Eastern-Europe can send in their projects by 18th of May.

The interest shown to the entrepreneurial projects from the IT, online and technology sector is constantly growing with each Venture Connect edition. Until now, two significant investments have been finalized through the Venture Connect assistance: Tjobs.ro – an online recruitment platform in 2011, and Bittnet Sysmtes – company which holds a leading position in the Romanian Network Training sector.

“We have joined this project as we are convinced that in Romania has an impressive number of visionary entrepreneurs, able to design successful businesses, who lack the financial and strategic support to launch and develop larger online businesses. We believe that Venture Connect is the place to go in order to connect with successful entrepreneurs, the conference where we can put to work our know-how and our force to invest in the development of sustainable business projects” mentioned Raluca Georgescu, Country Manager Allegro Group Romania.

The fifth Venture Connect edition is endorsed by Allegro Group Romania, Post-Privatization Foundation and Biris Goran.
