Santa Fe Open Coffee brings experienced entrepreneurs, members of the investment community and others interested in entrepreneurship and starting new ventures together in an informal setting. For this outing, we're changing the formula somewhat to include a guest speaker and topic to provide some insights and get discussion going.  Hope to see you there!

 

This Session: What Are Venture Investors Looking For?

Join Phase One Ventures General Partner (and New Mexico Angels investor) Richard (Rick) Sanders for a look at what experienced investors like him are looking for in their next deal.
