I've got a video of the entire 2+hour event.  It begins with Paul's keynote, followed by the panel at minute 37.

And speaking of Paul Palmieri, I have to give him props.  He's a really friendly guy.  I'd never met him, but he actually came up to me to say hello.  Here's the CEO of one of the hottest and fastest-growing companies in the mobile space taking the time to seek me out and say hello.  It was noticed and appreciated, and it made me wonder if Millennial Media is succeeding out of sheer force of awesomeness of its CEO.

'Cliff Notes on Raising Your First $1 Million Through AngelList' Keynote + Panel

I recently gave a keynote and was a panelist at Potomac Tech Wire's "Seed and Early Stage Funding Outlook:Raising Capital For Startups" event at the Ritz Carlton in McLean, VA.  You can see the handout I used during my talk at left (click to download PDF).

For those who attended the event, AngelList has graciously allowed me to give away their 90 page e-book titled "Pitching Hacks," their 1,396 page "Venture Hacks Bible" and their sample cap table, which together usually sells for a combined $47.

Below is the full agenda and video.

Seed Stage Outlook 2011 is part of the Potomac Tech Wire breakfast series that brings together senior executives in the Mid-Atlantic to discuss technology issues in a conversational, roundtable environment moderated by the editor of Potomac Tech Wire. The two panels at this event will focus on seed-stage and early-stage funding from the perspective of both entrepreneurs and funders. In addition, a DC-area entrepreneur who recently raised $1 million from various angel investors through AngelList will give a brief presentation on his successful fundraising.
