The SEVC will showcase the southeast's most promising companies from all technology sectors. Presenting companies are high growth, innovative companies with talented management teams, proprietary technology, and headquartered in one of the following states: Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Maryland, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, or Washington DC.

Presenting companies will range from early stage firms seeking their first institutional round to later stage pre-IPO firms seeking expansion capital.

The deadline for presenting company applications is November 9, 2007. Companies are encouraged to apply prior to the deadline for best consideration.

To be considered as a potential presenter, please submit a 2-3 page executive summary to present@seventure.org. Summaries should highlight at a minimum: the management team, IP, investment sought/raised, competitive differentiation and top line revenue. Initial presenters will be notified no later than December 7, 2007.

Submissions will be reviewed in confidence by the SEVC's selection committee, consisting of nationally respected venture capitalists specializing in a variety of technology industries.

Questions about the presenting process can be directed to Eric Gregg at eric@seventure.org.
