Silicon Valley Meets the EU's Fortune 500 at the California Tech Showcase 2007
The California Tech Showcase 2007 (CTS 2007 -
www.CaliforniaTechShowcase.com) will be held at the Hotel Hermitage in
La Baule, France on June 28th and 29th this year. The conference is
being hosted by EuroStart, a new Silicon Valley-based venture fund.
CTS 2007 sponsors include EuroStart Capital Partners, Business Wire,
Rumeur Publique, EuroNext Stock Exchange, the State of California,
Pierre Audoin Consultants, and Fenwick & West.
This high-profile event will allow the most promising U.S.-based
private high-technology and green technology companies to meet CEOs,
CIOs, and CTOs from 250 of Europe's largest banks, media companies,
manufacturers, retailers such as Siemens, Societe Generale, T-Mobile,
EDF, British Telecom, SAP, ST Microelectronics and many more. The 40
selected companies are guaranteed a minimum of five one-on-one
meetings with CxOs of the European attendees of their choice. CTS 2007
will be the catalyst for immediate revenue ramp-up in Europe for these
companies.
Sourcing innovative technologies has become critical for large
enterprises and their ability to address new markets. California alone
consistently pulls more than twice the venture capital investment of
the entire EU.
"At CTS 2007, the European attendees will get direct access to the
best and brightest companies from California. We've have reviewed over
800 company profiles and selected with diligence the candidate showing
all together, a disruptive technology, coherent European strategy and
solid economics," said Jean-Bernard Guerree, a Managing Director at
EuroStart.
The California companies are ripe for EU partnerships and
committed to dedicated proper resources to fuel their European
expansion.
CTS 2007 will take place in conjunction with the World Investment
Conference (WIC 2007- http://www.LaBauleWIC.org/). WIC 2007 will
feature hundreds of CEOs from firms such as GE, Siemens, Fiat and
Veolia, as well as government officials and ministers. WIC 2007's
theme is green technology. There will be global press coverage of the
two conferences. Press covering the conferences includes the Wall
Street Journal, International Herald Tribune, CNBC, EuroNews, BBC,
BSkyB, CNN, and others.
