What the Zero-to-Hero 2005 participants had to say

“I found the day both stimulating and enjoyable. The content was relevant - even if some of the views expressed were not necessarily what I wanted to hear! - and the networking opportunities most welcome. I just wish you had staged the event 6 months ago and we at PGI might have saved ourselves a great deal of time, money and frustration.”

Keith Edwards, PGI

“I thought the day was excellent. Invaluable, practical advice and a good chance to meet new contacts.”

Richard Counsell, MD - Aardvark Toys

"Thanks for a really excellent day”

Simon Currey, MD - Veloscient

“Thank you for the opportunity to listen, converse, network etc with a great group of guys; it was very interesting and valuable.”

Dr Richard Skipper, MD - Polymer Sciences

“Very worthwhile and great to have varying viewpoints on the process/requirements, etc of fund raising.”

Nick Bentley CEO - Cyphaware

“Thank you for a most informative and enjoyable day yesterday, I have to confess that I came to the session slightly apprehensive that it might be another 'more of the same stuff' kind of day. But it was far from that, the 3 key talks were all excellent, the networking and interaction relaxed but pro-active, and the organisation and venue perfect. I have left with a much clearer view of how we should be taking our funding discussions forward and already have a meeting planned with Eden. Importantly for you, it was interesting to get a better understanding of the services that you provide and should we require that support in the future you will be our first call!”

Peter Baumann, Commercial Director - Hanzo

“I found yesterday most useful and would like to compliment you on the high standard of the event, both in terms of location and arrangements and especially in terms of the content. I found the sessions pithy and useful, especially the afternoon session. I found it interesting to see the representatives from the bank and VCs, who appeared to take the session very seriously. The candidate companies were most interesting.”

Les Taylor, Private Investor
