Fast Pitch Program — CEOs of Three Early-Stage Companies
Present Their Plans For Growth

Success has a lot of ingredients, but the most important one may be a good idea. At our August 20 breakfast meetings, three entrepreneurs who have launched three very different kinds of companies will each talk about the novel and exciting idea that led to the formation of their venture -- and how they plan to turn that concept into a profitable business.

Our "Fast Pitch" presenters are:

  • Rob Carpenter, of FriendGifr.com, an e-commerce 2.0 company that aims to commercialize social media and mobile phones via gift cards sold through Facebook, MySpace and other sites.

  • Richard Burke of RxTimerCap, LLC (www.RxTimerCap.com), a patented "smart" cap for prescription vials which incorporates a built-in LCD timer that lets patients know how long it has been since they last took their medication.

  • Tim Krass of True Athlete, a sports-themed multiplayer online gaming community that educates kids while they are having fun playing games and learning about sports.

This will be a highly interactive meeting. You will be asked to critique the business plans, strategies and marketing approaches of the three CEOs, and appraise their likely success at raising the capital they need and eventually turning a profit.

About CCS

We are focused on serving the needs of the continuum of capital from debt through equity. As a result, our monthly meetings are packed with lenders and equity players – from hard money through mezzanine and senior debt, angel investors, venture capital, large private equity and everything in between. Many CCS attendees are professionals who offer the resources these investors need to get their deals done.

CCS is also open to entrepreneurs and business executives who are looking for capital, and to those who are looking for businesses to acquire. It’s a great mix!

Another Benefit: You can submit a “Deal with a Story” that we’ll review. Once it is approved, we’ll present it to attendees, in PowerPoint, and give you 10 to 15 minutes to discuss it and let us know how you can add value.
