“This forum will focus on the various types of capital sources available in the marketplace to revenue generating companies with eagerness for growth,” said Jean M. Stallard, founder of the Forum and a business attorney at Vandeventer Black. “It will present a venue for the much-needed dialogue between companies and capital sources about the great opportunities available in this region.”

Access to sufficient capital is one of those stumbling blocks that we are working hard to remove so that this economy can thrive,” said Jeff Tanner, Dean of the Strome College of Business. “A great deal of attention has recently been paid to start-ups and rightly so. But this forum will reach a broader audience and can help businesses find opportunities for the capital they need to expand.”
