Most startups want to raise capital, but what about what happens after you do? Unfortunately there are fewer guides and talks about what to do after you raised the money and have to transition to a venture backed success.
Hear about the exciting adventure of Telerik, a successful developer tools vendor, that started as a small niche player in the European backwaters. Learn how they raised venture capital from a prominent firm and grew from a tiny company working in a small warehouse to 500 employees with offices in seven countries. See how the founders had to learn on the fly, particularly when acquiring companies and entering new markets. Telerik has started the difficult process of transitioning from the start-up phase to building a “real” company eyeing an eventual IPO. Learn from all of our mistakes! The story will be told by Stephen Forte, Telerik’s Chief Strategy Officer and Richard Campbell, a member of the board.
The meeting will be held at BootHK, 19/f, 231 Queen’s Road East at 7:30pm.
