Spark, an entrepreneurial conference and networking event that successfully debuted last year, announced its call for entries for this years edition on May 24 in Philadelphia.
Spark provides a niche for people in the start-up stage as it provides access to investors, advisers and consultants that they otherwise would not have the ability to connect with, says Brewer, founder and CEO of Brolik Productions and founder of Spark.
Broliks and Brewers approach, which is to empower clients with creative strategy, technology and marketing solutions, is very much a part of Spark. The conferences morning session includes educational workshops and networking. In addition, early stage startups in the technology, clean-tech and no-tech sectors that have a business plan and a proven concept are encouraged to apply to present at the Spark Pitch Sessions in the afternoon.
Applications will be reviewed by an expert panel and narrowed to 25-30 companies that will be invited to present their business concepts in five minutes at the Spark Pitch Sessions. Angel investors, successful entrepreneurs, venture consultants and experienced advisors will ask questions, offer feedback and tap into the audiences expertise, as well. Deadline for applications is May 4, and tickets are available here.
The conference brings together early stage entrepreneurs to network with potential investors, gain valuable insight about growing their business, and gain access to the best resources in the Philadelphia region and at a cost that fits their tight-minded budget, says Brewer.
