War Stories in Finance

by Lori Jones and Otto Prohaska, co-moderators

Any start-up entrepreneur can tell you a few war stories about financing their venture. David S. Miller, Ph.D. can tell you dozens. Founder and Executive Managing Director of angel investors Clean Energy Venture Group (CEVG), Miller will be the keynote speaker for the WPI Venture Forum’s February 14 meeting, where he will address the critical criteria required to provide financing for energy startups. With more than 20 years of technology experience and 10 years of seed stage investing under his belt, Miller has plenty of wisdom to share with the Valentine’s Day audience at WPI.

Presenting the case will be PCI’s Chief Financial Officer, John Anderson, together with Chief Scientific Officer Theresa O’Keefe, Ph.D.
