Innovate Arkansas advisor Mike Smith Jr. had this to say today about the upcoming WBTshowcase in Texas: "Several Arkansas companies have been selected in the past and it is a pretty good venue for getting regional exposure."

He added that it also is a good venue for tech-based companies with an SBIR/STTR history. 

From the WBTshowcase newsletter:

If you have been thinking about attracting follow-on investment or a Fortune 1000 strategic partner for one of your portfolio companies, the upcoming WBTshowcase next March is a must-attend event.

Now in it's seventh year, the WBTshowcase is the foremost event offering seed and early stage venture investors and Fortune 1000 licensees a unique opportunity to sample the "best of the best" technologies from private companies, universities, federal labs, agencies, and research institutions from across the country and around the globe.

Leveraging a screening panel of over 80 investors and licensing professionals, presenting technologies are selected solely on the merits of their innovation and the specific investment or licensing opportunity. Exhibit space is limited to selected presenting technologies and event sponsors only.

If you are ready to submit an application for a break-through company, I have some great news...the deadline for online applications has been extended to December 22.

There is no cost to apply. Please visit www.wbtshowcase.com for more details.
