AeA's "Exit Strategies for High Tech" was the sequel to our successful "Riding the High Tech M&A Wave" event held in mid-2007. This program focused on current trends in the venture capital and investment community and key exit strategies for high-tech companies. 

With nearly 50 companies represented, including Neuros Technology International, NOW Wireless, Sword Diagnostics, Starthis, Darkstrand, Cognitor, and Translumen Technologies, our speakers were met with a captive and interactive audience - a testament to the timely and relevant information provided during this program.

 Speakers:

• Mr. Jason Liu, Chief Executive Officer, Univa UD
       "Raising and Using Capital for Growth in Today's Market"
