The LAVA Investment Capital Conference is one of the premier annual business events on the West Coast. It provides an ideal shared experience for senior executives, entrepreneurs, board members, capital sources, and key advisors. It features a day-long program of top-level panels and speakers exploring what investors are looking for, how companies can make themselves more attractive to investors, and where companies can find capital at each stage in their growth. The event is capped in the afternoon by The Capital ZoneTM in which executives and capital providers mix freely to make connections and explore opportunities.
