For the past two days,  I've been hanging out with a room full of hard working entrepreneurs,  curious and engaged venture capitalists,  and the team that runs Early Stage East.   If you haven't heard of this event,  you should.   It's a ten year old passion project of David Freschman - himself a Venture investor - and it takes place at the historic Hotel du Pont in Wilmington.

I confess,  I hadn't spent a lot of time in Wilmington - so I was truly delighted to get to check out the downtown,  find myself in the middle of a huge outdoor jazz concert in the middle of the city at night,  and enjoy the company of such a great bunch of folks.

The day long event included company presentations,  panels presentations,  and an award ceremony that celebrated some of the best known and most respected Venture Capitalists in the middlantic region.

This year,  Magnify.net was invited to present in front of this group -  and despite some pretty great presenting companies - we didn't disappoint.  We're proud to say we took home the coveted "Company Most LIkely to Receive Funding"  award.   It is already proudly in place in Magnify HQ.  Thanks to David and his terrific team for make such a great home for Venture Capitalists and Entrepreneurs to get together.
