Testimonial "The TiE Funding Forum was extremely helpful for me, as it helped prepare us for large-room presentations and live-demos to investors, while the Q&A format gave us practice for the unscripted meetings that are an obvious part of the funding process. Everyone at TiE was incredibly supportive. I think this is a must-attend event for early-stage entrepreneurs who are readying themselves for the fundraising process." Dave Schappell Founder & CEO, TeachStreet
