Last night was a big night for the participants in FastTrac. They graduated. It was a pretty big deal for some of the companies. Folks even asked to bring along their SO, kids, and parents.

One of the goals of FastTrac was to enable entrepreneurs to develop an effective elevator pitch and investor presentation. The real reason it was a big deal was that there were about 50 investors in the room. Folks from Atlanta Technology Angels, Imlay Investments, Kinetic Ventures, Noro-Mosely, Seraph Group, and UPS Strategic Enterprise Fund.

There was a lot of pitching going on. All the companies did a fine job with their elevator pitches. Five companies were allowed to give a five minute investor presentation. These companies were AdBuyNet, Izenda, LumoFlex, Simcraft, and Wireless Vision.

In addition to putting on a bang up show last night Cindy Cheatham has some investor follow up to coordinate.

The FastTrac program is part of the ATDC’s focus to extend its programming. We intend to do it again next year with a host of other plans to better serve entrepreneurs. If you have any interest in learning more drop me a line.
