V2C Forum 2004
Venture-to-Capital

Workshops

The parallel workshops are a direct follow-on event from the First Finnish - U.S. Entrepreneurial Forum held in Helsinki on October 1, 2003. John May and Song Pak were both among the panelists at that time. The workshops allow for in-depth discussion of topics initially brought out during the 2003 event.

The workshops will consist three discussion pointers, prepared commentaries and discussion. The results of the workshops will be presented and discussed in Panel II: Comparing Finnish and U.S. V2C Paradigms.
