SolutionCast: Funding the Silicon Valleys In Our OWN Backyards

Another SolutionCast! If not us, then who? It's time to stop asking others to fund and support our communities, its initiatives, businesses, and schools. The Urban Tech Fair defines Silicon Valley as Talent, Innovation, and Resources all of which we have within our communities. We can not compete and gain real respect if we are not willing and actively funding our OWN Silicon Valleys.

Mike Green and Jaymes Hines leads a discussion and lesson in the why, the when and the how tech businesses and ventures may obtain VC funding, how we as a community may develop pools of funding, and a plan of strategy to build and fund our own Silicon Valleys.

Presenters include:
Mike Green, one of the nation's leading advocates of Inclusive Competitiveness as a 21st Century economic imperative, Huffington Post Correspondent and Co-founder of ScaleUp America
