WHAT PEOPLE SAY

Don't take our word for it.

The relationships develop through Kinect Capital‚ and Cooperative Venturing Network have proven invaluable, from the early stages of raising venture capital all the way through our public offering.
Andy Reguskus
Sonic Innovations
We raised $2 million in seed money from investors we met through Kinect Capital.
Brad Wright
Document Control
Our Kinect Capital Deal Maker Team reduced our 40 minute company presentation to a 10 minute investor overview presentation. Their help saved us thousands of dollars and weeks of work.
Pete Meldrum
Myriad Genetics
[Carina] raised about $ 1.4 million in the last 8 months (mainly through angel investment groups) but your (Kinect Capital) assistance in helping me focus the presentation was instrumental in that fund raising effort.
Bill Hetherington
