With New York on the rise as a life science hub, Life Science Nation (LSN) has brought the Redening Early Stage Investments (RESI) conference to the city to make the crucial link between early stage life science startups in the city, and the global investors who are looking for new technologies. LSN would like to thank our partners and sponsors, Johnson & Johnson Innovation JLABS, McDermott Will & Emery, Stetson Family Ofce, and Merck, for joining us in NYC today. At our most recent RESI event in Boston, we introduced a new element to RESI - the First Coast Innovator's Gathering - which was so well received that we decided to continue it at RESI NYC. Previously, early-stage investors and partners in LSN's network told us that they wanted to meet more very early, spin-out stage companies, and it was challenging to get a good overview of these startups as they are so thinly scattered among a multitude universities and incubators. LSN decided to focus on gathering together startups based at tech hubs in the regions that RESI visits. Today, we welcome tech hubs from New York, New Jersey, and the wider Mid-Atlantic region. You can check out their constituents in RESI's exhibition hall. Additionally, 8 top applicants from these tech hubs will be pitching their opportunities at our First Coast Innovators Pitch Challenge this afternoon from 1:00 - 2:30 PM. The RESI Innovation Challenge also takes place today, with 30 startup nalists from the biotech, medtech, diagnostic and digital health worlds presenting their posters. Inside your RESI badge you’ll nd ve tokens of RESI Cash you can use to “invest” in the most promising of these technologies. The winning companies that attract the greatest amount of “investment” will be announced at the cocktail reception tonight. We would also like to welcome the hundreds of investors who are attending RESI today to meet face-to-face with entrepreneurs. By getting to know your focus areas and capabilities as well as possible, LSN has turned RESI Partnering into an industry-leading experience. By using prole information provided by LSN's Investor Research team, RESI attendees can approach meetings with a strong basis for dialogue and the knowledge that the person across the table is a good t for their product or mandate. We hope that you get the most out of your one-on-one meetings today. LSN would like to extend our thanks to the speakers participating on the RESI Investor Panels and RESI Early Stage Workshops. This RESI event includes new panel sessions focused on AI in Healthcare, Funding NYC's Earliest Stage Companies, and the return of our popular session on Oncology Innovation. We would also like to invite you to our educational workshop track, including Negotiating Term Sheets by McDermott Will & Emery, and Grants or Payroll R&D Tax Credit by HIREtech. These sessions provide essential knowledge to entrepreneurs who are looking for the capital they need to commercialize a life science product. We are looking forward to a packed day of networking, meetings, and new connections. We hope you enjoy this great opportunity to start new dialogues. RESI will be in San Francisco on January 8th, and we hope to continue the conversation there.

  • State Strategies to Promote Angel Investment for Economic Growth*
    Contact: Chris Hayter, Program Director, Economic Development Social, Economic, and Workforce Programs Division 202/624-7833 February 14, 2008 State Strategies to Promote Angel Investment for Economic Growth* Executive Summary Governors are increasingly interested in entrepreneurship because of its key role in driving business innovation. While entrepreneurs face several common challenges, including developing business acumen and making connections with experts and mentors, often their greatest challenge is raising capital. Entrepreneurs’ emerging technologies are frequently viewed as too risky for banks, private equity firms and venture capitalists, yet many fledgling companies require more investment to grow than can be raised from friends and family. Angel investors are increasingly stepping in to fill this gap. Angel investors are wealthy individuals with business or technology backgrounds who provide entrepreneurs with capital, connections, and guidance. They provide early-stage financing in a space once occupied by venture capitalists, who now invest primarily in larger deals and more mature companies. Individual angels invest between $5,000 and $100,000 in local and regional ventures, primarily in high-technology sectors, giving their investments local impact. In the past decade, many angel investors have formed and joined groups because investing through groups offers several advantages, most notably a large and more diverse portfolio, access to expertise, and higher deal flow. States increasingly recognize the value of angel investments and are adopting policies to promote them. Some have created statewide networks to assist the formation of angel groups, link angel groups to share best practices, and help groups invest together in companies that need more funding than a single group can offer.
