Reason: Ich war auf dem letzten EVM und fand die Location und das Event sehr gut!
Houman Gieleky, CEO, Toptranslation GmbH
War eine echt gute Veranstaltung!
Matthias Hunecke, CEO, Brille24 GmbH
This was quite an amazing event. Most of the pitches showed attractive, innovative business cases and I was
impressed by the high quality of the entrepreneurs. The organisation matched the fantastic outlook and beautiful
that enjoyed from the terrace at the Weekend Club.
I will come again!
Sylvius Bardt, Investor & Entrepreneur
Vielen Dank für die super Organisation des EVM.
Stefan Wagner, CEO, mvolution GmbH
EVM is a refreshing, effective and friendly venue for making contact with investors. It is well organized and the investors
are here to do business. I happily recommend the event.

Still working out the leads that I got at your conference. It was a pleasure to meet you in Vaduz - let's stay in touch!
Ingolfur Hardarson, CEO, Nuevo vehicvles
Eine gelungene Veranstaltung - ein großes Kompliement von unserer Seite!
Manuela Barth, LL.M. oec., ZIRNGIBL LANGWIESER Rechtsanwälte Partnerschaft
Herzlichen Dank für die tolle Organisation und die herzliche Aufnahme in Vaduz. Ich hoffe, es hat Ihnen auch
gefallen und Sie waren mit Ihrer Veranstaltung zufrieden. Das unmittelbare Feedback war rundum positiv und
stellt einen guten Grundstein für eine langfristige Etablierung der Veranstaltung am Liechtensteinischen Private
Equity Markt dar. Sie decken damit die gesamte Deutschschweiz, Österreich, Bayern und Baden Württemberg
sowie Norditalien ab.

Feedback from the 13th European Venture Market (May 2010):
Positive:
-
My personal thanks and appreciation to Jeanette and Smit. They have done the great job before
and during the show! Very attentive and professional – they are top assets of this team.
-
I like the idea of investors/industry reps giving short presentations.
-
Color-code of badges and book parts is the great idea. You can see and find investors easily!
-
Technically, presentation sessions were very well organized
Alex Michine, CEO, MetGen, Finland
I think the event was well organized, I can say that personally, I received ample support, especially from Jeanette.
As to results – still too early to say. To date – I Got only one reply to email follow-up on the interesting parties. But
if I get 4-5 parties engaged in serious consideration of investment, it will be counted as success!
Esther Loewy, Partner, Bootcamp Ventures, Israel
Dank Microsoft konnten wir auf dem EVM sein. Eine für uns wesentlich bessere Veranstaltung, als das Eigenkapitalforum in Dresden, weil nur zwei parallele Vortragsreihen und die auch noch getrennt in ICT und CleanTech / Biotech. So konnten wir die komplette Aufmerksamkeit aller ICT Interessierten haben. Die Slots waren gut besucht mit 40+ Anwesenden. Die Zeiten zwischen den Slots waren auch sehr gut nutzbar, da alles ziemlich eng aufeinanderprallte und trotzdem genügend Platz und Raum war, um sich gut zu unterhalten. Man konnte sich quasi nicht ausweichen. Wenn man jemanden nicht kannte, haben die Leute von der Continua mich an die Hand genommen und mich den Personen vorgstellt.
Der Bericht vom EVM, Zusammenfassung:
-
Hat sich gelohnt
-
Präsentationsabstimmung gewonnen
-
5 + 1 Mögliche Investoren
-
2 Neue Partner im Ausland möglich
-
1 Kontakt in die IT einer großen Chemie Firma
Christian Zander, CTO, Protected-networks.com GmbH, Berlin
Thank you very much for the opportunity to attend and speak at the Venture Capital Market event organized by Continua this week. I really appreciated it and found it very interesting. I also had the opportunity to meet motivated people; meetings which will possibly lead to business opportunities.
Xavier de Nazelle, Aloe Private Equity, Paris
The EVM was very useful in getting to see more European deal flow.
Gitte Bedford, Investment Principal, Robert Bosch Venture Capital GmbH, Gerlingen
The event was well organized and summa-summarum for us a success.
Dr. Gunter Pollanz, Chief Executive Officer, Med–O–Card, Frankfurt (Main)
Mir haben Organisation, Veranstaltungsort incl. Hotel, Programm und Teilnehmerspektrum ausgezeichnet gefallen. Die Internationalität der Veranstaltung hatte ich so nicht erwartet; ausgesprochen positiv! Auch das Spektrum von Kapitalsuchenden und -anbietenden Firmen war sehr gut.
Obwohl unser Interessengebiet - industrielle Biotechnologie - nur einen kleinen Teil des Spektrums ausmachte und ich nur am 18.5. teilnehmen konnte, habe ich interessante Kontakte aufbauen können, die wir weiterverfolgen.
Wir unterstützen Sie auch in Zukunft gerne; kommen Sie auf uns zu! Ihre Ansprechpartnerin bei uns ist Frau Dues.
Dr. Manfred Kircher, Chairman, CLIB2021 – Cluster für Industrielle Biotechnologie, Düsseldorf
Congratulations on a smoothly run event! It was definitely worth my while and the contacts I made were at the highest level, much appreciated.
Dr. Tania Peitzker, Australian Investment Network, UK
In my opinion it was a top-class event. I am more than impressed by this event and you can expect full support from our side for this project.
Michael Pock, Hochschule Liechtenstein
Thank you again for the opportunity to participate in your event organized in Berlin.

Good vibrations and great feedback and contacts at European Venture Market
Cornelio Santana Gil, CEO, Heliocom, Spain
Feedback from the 12th European Venture Market (November 2009) and before:
I would like to thank you for your help in making the EVM a great event, and making my stay in Berlin a great experience. I was a speaker, however, it was interesting to compare this conference with US similar type conference that focus on entrepreneurship, raising money and start-ups. I hope I can attend the conference next year. Great value. Always on time and great content.
Mona Pearl, Founder&COO, BeyondAStrategy, USA
All in all: a great event, good matches. thank you.
Ben Berwing, Business Manager, MINERAWA, Germany
The continua TEAM is very polite and extremely helpful! Thx for a good experience.
Klaus Kremer, Operate-IQ, Germany
It was a pleasure attending the 2009 EVM conference. I want to thank you and your staff for making the event pleasant as well as fruitful.
Eyal Efron, CEO, Spiral Frame, Israel
I would like to thank you for organising the European Venture Market in Berlin. This is what Europe needs and especially when organised in such a professional way. Please continue as European entrepreneurs need this kind of proactive events.
Jaques Putzeys, Value Development, Monaco
The days in Berlin were extremely useful for us not only to have an incredible density of interesting talks and contacts with possible investors but also helped us in establishing fruitful business relationships with other entrepreneurs in the IT security and application sector. Furthermore we felt extraordinarily honored by winning the presentation award, which created additional awareness for our BenHur II Server project.
Frieder Hansen, CEO, Pyramid Computer, Germany
Having spent 9 years in Silicon Valley during its most formative years, I can honestly say that you have exceeded my expectations! You attracted a fine number of companies, capital providers without any of the "fluff" that sometimes appears, value-added service providers and expert technical support and facilitation. The three days were well paced and straightforward. In fact, my advice to you would be to continue (no pun intended) the way you are, developing a unique and honest program and to stay away from the hype of the S.F. Bay Area that will scare away those whom you most hope to attract. I must make special mention of Mr. Leonhard’s talents at making all feel at home and for keeping things on-track.
Steve Perlinski, President, Perlinski & Company, California
Two days before EVM took place I got the hint from Technologiestiftung Berlin that this event offers the opportunity to present our innovative development, VSWmobile® the mobile electronic patient card for handheld computers, to an interesting auditorium. Two days of preparation remained. So I applied for participation. - The outcome was more then I could expect before. Not to mention the instructive talks with VCs during the conference, but also the concrete follow up meetings and steps to add value into our project that took place since then.
Heinz Vilsmeier, CEO, VSW - Vilsmeier Systemware GmbH, Germany
I would like to thank Continua for a really great event. CompuTouch is just a small entrepeneurial start-up company presenting for the first time. We were cordially welcomed and really helped when we needed some extra equipment. The tutoring session was helpful and the response we had after the presentation was better than we had hoped for.
Hans Steller, CEO, CompuTouch AS, Norway
