There was a time not long ago when early stage investors in #Wisconsin could meet in a studio apartment kitchen or a telephone booth (back when there were still telephone booths). Today, such a gathering of angel and venture capitalists requires much more elbow room – especially when the meeting includes out-of-state investors who like what they’re seeing in Wisconsin. That conclusion could safely be drawn from the Nov. 13-14 Wisconsin Early Stage Symposium in Madison, where nearly 60 investors from 35 angel networks, angel funds, venture funds and corporate or family funds were among the 450 people who attended. Hailing from California, New York, Minnesota and Illinois as well as Wisconsin, these investors were drawn to see young #tech-based companies pitch on stage or in one-on-one meetings. With more than 50 such companies taking part in three conference tracks, those investors weren’t left unfulfilled.
