Start-up companies in Northwest Washington are invited to apply for a free Bootcamp to be held on October 21 at Everett Community College’s AMTEC Center. The Bootcamp is sponsored by BECU and hosted by the NW Innovation Resource Center (NWIRC) to provide customized mentorship in developing proposals for Angel investment funding.

Many entrepreneurs seeking outside capital investment for the first time are unfamiliar with the process. For many companies, bringing in outside investors is critical for both the capital but also the effective assistance with critical decisions which impact their business for years to come. Despite the overwhelming importance of this step, making the time to complete the necessary and expected
materials, preparing for the presentations, identifying the appropriate potential investors and then setting up meetings with those investors, can be next to impossible while simultaneously dealing with the day to day issues of a new and growing business.

The Bootcamp will bring together start-ups ready to start the process of seeking new capital investment, investors active in early-stage companies, mentors and other experienced participants who can assist the entrepreneurs as they get prepared to seek new capital and partners for their businesses. Teams will be paired with qualified mentors prior to the Bootcamp and will receive mentoring throughout the day.

Established start-ups companies in Snohomish, Skagit, Whatcom, Island, or San Juan counties are eligible to apply. Applications are due by Friday, September 22 and application materials can be found on the NWIRC website at nwirc.com/boot-camp.
